The Grammys become the people's choice awards - or do they?

Kelly Clarkson has become the first contestant from “American Idol” to win Grammys.

I officially don’t get “Idol”, but like Honda says about the Accord, millions of Americans can’t be wrong.

Of course, the Grammys themselves can’t be vouched for with the same certainty: Some television analysts have speculated that one of the more thrilling competitions of the evening will be the ratings rivalry between “Idol” and the kudocast for the hour in which they both overlap.

This is to miss the point, I think.
