    • Danielle - darkhorse candidate?

Is Danielle the darkhorse candidate? I'm pretty sure that she makes it as far as the Final Three, but does she make it to the Final Two alongside Tessa? I'm pretty sure it's Bevin in the Final Two...but now I'm wondering if it's Danielle? I've read a few things online that have cast doubt on my original choices for the Final Two.

I hope not...because I really want Tessa to win. LOL And I think that if it's Tessa and Bevin in the Final Two, Tessa will emerge the winner based on the edit that Bevin's been receiving (not very sympathetic - she's being portrayed as a needy whiner). But if it's Danielle and Tessa in the Final Two, then I could see Danielle coming out of nowhere and winning. Just like Sarah the schoolteacher in the Travis Stork season...who kinda blindsided everyone who'd figured that Moana would win.

Danielle is sweet and nice, but I just don't see her with Andy. Also, she hasn't had any one-on-one dates with Andy before the hometown dates...how can she pull ahead to win so late in the game? I'm skeptical...

I may be wrong, but I believe that Krisalie from Charlie's season didn't have any one-on-one dates before her home town date and she made it to the final two.  We will see.

So, I just finished watching tonight's episode.  Before I sat down to watch, I already knew who was getting a rose and who was being sent home, so no surprises there.  What I was really looking for were signs that Danielle and Andy might share something special that the producers have managed to keep hidden from us up until now...well, after tonight, I don't think Danielle is the dark horse candidate that some are hailing her to be.  At this point in the game, I don't see her coming from behind to win this thing at all.  It's too late.  Also, Andy pretty much gave her the kiss of death when he said, "I like Danielle, but I don't know if she's just a friend or somebody I can see as my partner." (Not an exact quote, but he uttered something along those lines.)

I still think Danielle has a chance.    Didnt Charlie's Sarah start coming on about this point.   And Sarah was friends with Charlie first.  And Bevin is the Krisalie of this Bachelor.  She is getting all the bad edits but just like Krisalie I think she will make the final two but not be chosen.   Andy said during an interview that it becomes obvious once we get to the final three.    At this point Tessa may be too obvious.   And I am not sure we have seen a bad Danielle edit.    She has demonstrated class and composure besides being a very attractive and sexy woman.

I don't think Danielle is either attractive or sexy...I find her rather homely.  And she's the least athletic out of the four remaining women.

She's perfectly sweet and nice, but rather plain and boring imho.

Since when does being stick skinny equal athletic? Danielle has been a gynmast, cheerleader, basketball player, and runner for as long as I've ever known her. To say that this girl is not athletic, just because she isn't stickly skinny, is B.S.

Danielle is about as interesting as waching paint dry. She's attractive, but painfully boring and bland. i think he just hasn't had a real reason to get rid of her yet. I think you can tell he's not that interested in her.  Either Danielle or Amber will be out next week.

Hey_Jealousy, I wasn't trying to be mean. I just think that Danielle is the least athletic of the remaining four women. I say this because Amber kicked her butt during the mini triathlon, Bevin has the most athletic build of the four and Tessa mentioned that she was training for a triathlon. I've never heard Danielle mention (on the show) that she runs marathons or triathlons or anything like that. In fact, I haven't heard Danielle say that she likes to do anything physically active.

And fyi, none of the other women are "stick thin" either. I just personally find Danielle the least attractive and the least compatible with Andy of the remaining four. I'm not a Bevin fan, but I think that even she and Andy have more in common with each other than Danielle and Andy.
