It's a horrible move for her. She is breaking "the plan," which now outs her as someone unreliable. Since she is taking out Angie who is the obvious enemy of Libra, Ollie, and April, it looks like she is doing their bidding and is therefore tightly aligned with them after all. People already know she is sort of with them, but this shuts out all doubt. This also means she doesn't take her ally Renny seriously. It means she has totally screwed Jessie over who sacrificed for "the group". She lets floater Dan gain more power. She makes 2 enemies based on who she puts on the block. Lines are drawn, Keesha gets labeled as part of the Ollie, April, Libra alliance, and she becomes top on the hit list for setting the war into motion and being their best challenger on their side thus far. The alliance she suspects is true and they have the best competitors of the house and is going to become their enemy. She imagines that they will go after Libra, April, and Ollie to do her dirty work, but she becomes as bad as them if not worse after this HoH

Keesha would have to royally fuck up for any of this scenario to occur. First of all, everyone already KNOWS that she is in with Ollie, April and Libra. This is not going to change the perception of Keesha. She may bitch about them all the time, but lets be honest, she was never going to nominate them herself, and the people with strategic wit in this game have been aware of this for a long time. Doing such would expose her in more of a way that any other move she could make this week, and the house knows she doesn't have the balls for it (nor should she). Keesha will leave this week the same way that she entered it - aligned with Oreo, but the only person in that alliance that the house feels they may be able to chink off. That is the way she should want herself to be perceived for now.

And are you seriously concerned about letting floater Dan gaining more power from this move? Dan is not going to attain more power than Angie currently has, and even if he did, Keesha is further out of his sights than she is in Angie's.

Now, I will grant you that Keesha might make some mistakes this week (and I have a feeling that if they happen, they will be big ones) but I'm not really sure. It really depends on how much of the real Keesha we are seeing. If she is actually the emotional player that she presents herself as, then she has been lucking out so far and this HoH could ruin her. But there is also an admittedly slim chance that she is much smarter than she lets on - she has been successful at stirring up shit, yet is relatively well liked by the house. She capitalized and created a shield out of Libra, created bonds with outsiders who have strong potential of sliding late into the game, is not on ANYONE's radar, and correctly identified her best strategic target tonight, if she actually follows through with this nomination (and I like Angie).

Darius you have some good points and I really agree with the "for the wrong reasons". I really think everyone isn't thinking of it as a game like you are they are playing it personal and who they "like" as opposed to "how the fuck do I win this $500k?". By dumb luck default one of them is just going to fall into the winner's slot. Jebus even Adam had a game plan and played it smart all the way to the end. I'm so disappointed in all of these idiots.

Thanks. And I agree, though I think we have a few real players this time around. Memphis, Dan and Libra are all keeping their eyes on the prize. Michelle and maybe Keesha are better at hiding it, but I am pretty sure they are too. The rest? Not so much.

I don't think people really knew that Keesha was with Libra and the others as much as she is
