I liked what Randy and Paula did by over riding Simon in their choice  of Ramiele.  His comment after her top 24 performance was great and on the money. After that, it seemed he was over critical and I think he greatly  contributed to her losing her confidence and her over trying simply to please him. In addition I  grew to dislike his constant praise of Carly who I think will again be a dismal failure. She just isn't a likable talent. His comments after Ramie's "Alone" were uncalled for. He made his point in the beginning but pressed it long after Simon gave her better grades for her performance. More than on a few occasions, he praised Carly when most of us felt her performance was average at best. If he wanted to be her agent again, he should have excused himself from judging.
