Idol Judge May Be Idle Next Season

Rumors of in-fighting, jealousy and redundancy have plagued the fourth Idol judge, Kara DioGuardi, almost since she started on the show, but even the critic herself admits she's not sure whether or not she'll be back for another season.

“I hope I’m here for another season,” she told Gatecrasher, “but I haven’t been asked yet.”

So she's not "the dawg" like Randy, not entertainingly nonsensical like Paula and not as mean as Simon, but am I the only person who really liked what she brought to the table? She's younger and fresher than the other judges, plus, her critiques ring true as she's the only one who's worked as a pop singer (in this century), a producer and a song writer to some of the former Idols!

Do YOU think she should stay or should she go?
