Why does everyone think Beyonce will debut #1?

For next week's chart I'd say:
Dark Horse: 600-650k
I Am...Sasha Fierce: 500-550k
David Cook: 300k
Fearless (2nd week): 200k

I don't think Bee stands a chance against the Nickelback fanbase. If I recall I don't think Beyonce's last album even reached half of Nickelback's last album sales.

David Cook will not outsell Archuleta.
And just because a previous album had huge, longevity-type sales, doesn't secure an outstanding debut. Case in point? Carrie Underwood only debuted with around 450k for "Carnival" after "Some Hearts" was massive. Whereas Taylor Swift debuts with nearly 550k after her debut sold much less than "Some Hearts". It's all about the momentum of your lead singles leading into your albums debut. In that regard, Beyonce has the upper hand on Nickelback.
Beyonce - 600k
Nickelback - 500k
David Cook - 150k

It was proven that David Cook had more pre-orders than Archuleta on iTunes. I predict...
Beyonce: 550k - 600k
David Cook: 350k - 400k
Nickelback: 300k - 350k
I don't wanna understimate Nickelback's fanbase, I'm just hoping they sell less than 300k.

Beyonce's promo for her album is BY FAR THE MOST PACKED I HAVE EVER SEEN!
She has a promo everyday!
She's whoring all the award shows and talk shows!
All these for a #2 debut!
Pathetic!

Papa Knowles TRICKED ALL OF US!
Since there are two versions of the album, most fans most probably will buy both.
PAPA KNOWLES really knows how to cheat his way for Beyonce to debut at #1!

Ain't that the truth!...sorta. You have to earn #1, not by cheating. I guarantee you, if it weren't for Mr. & Mrs. Knowles influence, she wouldn't be selling a lot.
I know I'm gonna get crushed for this, but I'm only saying how I feel about it.
