There are some great competition so I think anything can go. The one I feel the strongest about is FVOTY. I definitely think Carrie should win w/ an outside chance of Martina winning. However, other than radio play Allison Krauss is recognized as having one of the greatest voices. I really would love for Carrie to win the Single. Obviously the songwriters did a great job but I really think the singer made this song. It is such a great honour for the nominations and performing on the show, so either way she wins.
They say what happens here stays here all of this will disappear, there's just 1 little problem...

Just because your a CarrieFan doesn't mean you always have to pick her to win it. It doesn't mean u like her any less.
Thank you! I also said I wouldn't mind Carrie winning it, but is it a crime to like Martina or Reba more? It doesn't mean I don't like Carrie, but I don't have to believe she's the best in everything all the time, nor do I have to want her to win the same awards every year.
I don't think she should win again for the same body of work. That would be overkill. I think she should come back with a bang next year and win for her new record. But she's already won once for her vocals on "Some Hearts"; I believe it's unfair to give it to her again.
That doesn't mean I'm against her or I'm not a fan, but if it were any other artist winning every year for the same album, people would be upset, so I don't think they should give Carrie too much too soon. I think the other ladies should get their chance this year.
That is just my stand point on the situation. It's sad if that labels me as a bad fan.

That's true. But Reba and Martina both have won Female vocalist countless times over the years. Martina even won years in a row before. I think the award goes to who was the biggest female vocalist of the year and it's just hard to deny Carrie that I guess.
