Let's consider what she has going for her:-She's unknown to the public, but Academy members and film lovers remember her in Junebug, where she also played a lovable character, and got a nomination (I have to rent that).
-Her film has been getting sensational reviews, and the reviews have indicated that she is what carries the movie.
-She has been compared to Julie Andrews in Mary Poppins. If that's true...look out.
-She has limited competition. The only real contenders for the win are Ellen Page and Marion Cotillard (both Musical/Comedy contenders, as it would seem).
-Oscar loves traditional Disney. Especially if it's good.
If these reviews and this buzz continues, then prepare for the unseen clean-sweeper of the year.

She'd deserve it too. She's fantastic in Enchanted.
MI read that Marion Cotillard put in the Drama category... Don't forget Helena Bonham Carter
Finally, margot at the wedding are generate buzz... Maybe Kidman and especially Jason leigh could have a nomination
Yeah, that comparison to Julie Andrews in Mary Poppins is amazing.
I know I'm the only one, but I really don't see Marion Cotillard as a contender. But yes, the Best Actress race is looking surprisingly weak and surprisingly extremely C/M (Page, HBC, Linney, Cotillard (maybe))
Amy Adams is "Enchanted". She gave a great nomination worthy performance.
