Definitely Carolee Carmello for "Parade." As much as I love Bernadette Peters, she was just an okay Annie Oakley, and Carolee deserved that Tony sooooo much more, in my opinion.

Also, Barbra Streisand for "Funny Girl." I LOATHE Carol Channing. I think Barbra should have one that one.

I have a slight infatuation with Stephanie Block. I was fortunate enough to see her run in "The Boy From Oz", man she is fierce. The competition that year was fierce as well.

I think she lost to Idina Menzel?

I also think I remember this post on the boards earlier, so if Ms. Block was aformentioned, I apologize.

Well, Raul Esparza. But I wouldn't say for Taboo.

It *should* be for The Normal Heart, but that obviously didn't work out. He also should have been given a special one for Cabaret.

And, Chrysanthemum, I just think Raul should get ALL the Tonys. Ever. =)

jetteson, Stephanie J. Block was not nominated for her performence in The Boy From Oz, but if she was, its more likely that she would have been nominated for Featured Actress than Leading Actress (the category that Idina won) since Liza Minelli is not a leading role in The Boy From Oz.

Another vote for Brian Strokes Mitchell in Ragtime
There's a lot I am not certain of...

Raúl Esparza, for Taboo. And honestly, if there hadn't been such a royal f*ckup with The Normal Heart, and the plans to move to Broadway went through, he'd have one by now. He'll win for Company, and if he doesn't, well, I pre-emptively curse the voters.
