Good grief, there have only been two winners crowned at this point way too early for that prediction 15:12:04 10/21/13 Mon

It's pretty easy to make that prediction. If your best from last year come back and add the new teens coming from OT. You have a pretty good idea. Don't see any strong and ready to make a showing yet. -- No name, 15:20:32 10/21/13 Mon

Kentucky always has a strong showing at Miss America, even when the "expected girl" doesn't win. There are a handful of returning girls (assuming they will compete) who would do really well nationally. (NT) -- IMO, 17:53:03 10/21/13 Mon

We shall see. I agree the last couple have done well, just don't see it happening again this year. (NT) -- No name, 18:44:22 10/21/13 Mon
Kentucky is a very competitive state and not an easy one to win, as long as that's the case (NT) -- the caliber we send to Miss America will be fine, 10:11:36 10/22/13 Tue
