So who do you think will win each category? Are the nominees right this year or was someone left off the list? I was surprised to see Taylor Swift in there for favorite female artist this year over the “usuals” like Faith Hill, Sara Evans, or even Reba McEntire who has been crossing over the airwaves with her duet with Kelly Clarkson.
