X Factor, The Day After: Top 5 Results Dish

Last night, in what was far and away the most controversial and emotional "X Factor" results show yet, little Rachel Crow was sent home. She did NOT take the news well, and, judging by the infuriated comments on various message boards, blogs, and responsible judge Nicole Scherzinger's "fan" page on Facebook, neither did much of America.

This crazy episode has me, and my "Day After" co-conspirator Matt Whitfield, asking all the burning questions on viewers' and possibly Rachel's minds today: Should Nicole be fired? Should Steve Jones be fired? Why have a sing-off at all, if the judges don't vote accordingly? What will be the repercussions for Nicole, for Marcus Canty, for Josh Krajcik, and for this show in general?
