Subject: And I really take issue with your statement "Even if you don't believe the competition itself is rigged (which I do)". How do you know? Do you have evidence of this rigged contest? Maybe some photographs? Or a judge's taped confession? Let's see. Because, if you don't have any proof, then you can't be sure and if youre not sure, then you DONT KNOW CRAP. Be careful what you claim to "know", you can get yourself in a lot of legal trouble throwing around accusations like that. And another thing---at least 5 of the contestants had dresses that were either worn in previous years/pageants and even made by one of the judges!!! they didn't win. It may make you feel better about yourself to rationalize your loss, but stop diminishing the win of Samantha and her predecessors. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Samantha won because she did an amazing job. because her REAL scores were highest. Thats the way it works in pageants, whether you choose to believe it or not.
