I agree as partners...Rachel and Howie are doing well. Not hanging out with each other. The only thing that I think will hurt them is rachel is a competator and later this will hurt her.
maggie and Eric, I am not sure about them...magie is good at trying to keep Eric calm and warning him about his temper, but other then that I do not see much from maggie. This will be good that she is nto a threat, buy once they others get tired of Sargent Eric barking orders not sure how well she will do.
I also think James is playing hard. Keeping in good spirits with everyone. ALso smart that he still has talks/alliance with Kaysar as he will need him to get rid of some of the core. The thing that I think may come up to hurt him is his relationship with sarah.... dating 4 months or 4 years no woman likes other women hanging on their boyfriend.
Feel bad for Bo and Evilette....he is really trying to get allong with everyone and she is jsut stirring the pot everytime we see her on the screen. Eventually they will get tired of her highschool antics. Plus I think Evilette is being too emotional in the game.
Jenn and April ~ well let's just say I hope Michael calls them out!!! One thing to play hard, but to start rumors so early in the game that is bad....
