I'll skip the next few because I don't care enough about the contestants to comment.
I don't see David Cook as a Nickelback or Creed type of guy. Having said that, I don't see him as an Our Lady Peace kind of guy either. He made a bad song choice and it grossed me out. I thought the writing on his hand was extremely cheesy as well. But we are in the minority, you need to understand that. He is appealing to millions of women who just made a mess of their panties because he "cares".
Nice comparison to Secada and Archuleta!
Keep in mind, much like the viewing audience, the judges have a constant case of ADD. What is good one week is not good the next. Don't believe me, watch the last 6 seasons prior to this. They want someone who is original but when that person breaks the fourth wall, they want something familiar. There is no winning with these people.

Good post, but please explain the difference to me between those three bands.
Also, why doesn't Our Lady Peace have a number in their name. Eve 6, Third Eye Blind, Matchbox-20, 3 Doors Down, 3 Days Grace, Blink-182... It's just common knowledge that you need a number in your band name if you want to truly, truly be a crappy post-grunge/pop-punk band whose annoyingly banal songs play in the background of every hack MTV reality show, "Blind Date", "Next", "Date my Mom, Rape My Sister", "Wear a Funny Hat and Cop a Fake Accent with Tila Tequila!!!" et al.
Creed=Nickleback=Our Lady Peace on the "Makes me want to light q-tips on fire and jam them in my ears so I can never hear again scale"
Although, yeah, Creed and Nickleback and more anthemic, obvious grunge ripoffs, whereas OLP is in another league of total doucheness.
