Seems like there’s only about 20% of TS fans and the CMA voters thought Taylor should get vocalist. I’m finding TS fans all over who say..”yeah she shouldn’t have got that one. We love her music though!” Also some others:

The REALLY????? Award-from editors of THAT NASHVILLE SOUND
It was Taylor Swift’s night, pulling home Video Of The Year, Album Of The Year and the coveted Entertainer Of The Year. After the year she’s had, all of that could be understood. But Female Vocalist Of The Year? With her consistent off-tone live performances, you wonder where’s Simon from American Idol when you need him.

Entertainment Weekly:
Worst Judges’ Decision Of The Night: Awarding Taylor Swift the Best Female Vocal award. Look: I think she’s a terrific songwriter; I even think her all-stops-out stage show earned her the big one, Entertainer of the Year. But her voice is thin, and sometimes as wobbly as a newborn colt. Sorry, Taylor, when placed against the competition in this category — Martina McBride, Reba McEntire, Miranda Lambert, and Underwood — you just aren’t the best singer.

There was a huge force of people upset about this award. I hope the ACM voters are reading this. Please no insane repeats!

Vance, Antonio is on the right track regarding the ratings decline the final hour. With a good portion of Taylor’s fan base being girls 13 and under, it probably ran past their usual bed time being a school night and all.

Is anyone else a little suspicious that Taylor Swift is more influenced by O.A.R. or some fauxternative folk rock music than anything country? I bet she’s never even heard of Dottsy!

The big problem with the CMAs credibility comes down the road. Like next year when their stellar golden child has no nominations, or five years from now when she doesn’t even have a deal.

Not to mention the audience that will have moved on to something else by then.

Vance: The shows ratings declined as her fan base was lured away by a show with good singing.
