It will be Stephane Lambiel or Ilia Klimkin. They are the two skaters that actually know how to skate, imo. Btw, if they don't win, so what? I'm not changing my mind for a bunch of so-called judges.
The question comes down to, "Who wants it more?" I think Plushenko wants to win more than ever now, seeing as he came so close to it this past year. He definitely has potential for 2006.
And as a second note-any guy that can do a Beillmann deserves to win!
