This is what Bob told me yesterday. Imagine, talent takes second place to high profile!
Maybe the release of 'Harmony' will lift his profile and come Fall, they will vote him in. He certainly has earned the right to be there.

Barry Manilow! Barry Manilow?! The Copa Cabana guy? You've got to be kidding. No comparison.
I once heard a joke about Manilow: If he ever decided to become a cocaine addict, he could snort up the entire country of Peru in one snort.
