'The Bachelorette:' Who Will DeAnna Pick?
Hey, "Bachelorette" fans! Tonight's the night DeAnna has to make her final decision. We know she made a pros and cons list to help her choose between Jason and Jesse, but I think there's an X factor worth considering. What is it? Brad.
DeAnna flat-out admitted that she dismissed two of the guys she really liked - Graham and Jeremy - because they reminded her too much of Brad. Ouch! Now, this is totally human. We've all done it in the wake of a bad break-up. It's still not a fair way for DeAnna to make her decision.
It's a little disturbing how often Brad has been mentioned this season. Yes, he broke DeAnna's heart...but if she's not over him, is now really the best time for her to be picking her new husband out of a line-up?
Going with my theory, let's think about the final two. Jesse is sweet and goofy. He's very genuine. But is his laid-back snowboarder lifestyle too much like Brad's laid-back love 'em and leave 'em bartender routine? (I don't think so, but then I don't think Jeremy really acted like Brad, either!) Jason, on the other hand, is very grown-up and responsible. I think it's fair to call him the anti-Brad. Will this be enough to edge out Jesse?
If I have to pick a winner, I'd pick Jason. (But I think I've picked wrong pretty much every season!) I know you guys have very strong opinions, so let's hear 'em!
