Ponder tonight's live Power of Veto competition, if you will. Jeff & Jordan are in complete control of the house, with a chance to take down three players in eight days.
Tonight, Lydia and Natalie are on the block. With seven houseguests left, only one houseguest won't play for the PoV.
If Lydia or Natalie win, they'll take themselves down and Kevin will go up. Someone from their alliance still goes home.
If Russell or Michele win, the nominations will stay the same. No point in rocking the boat, especially since those two have a not-so-secret alliance.
However, if Kevin wins, the house gets shaken up. Let's say Kevin wins and takes down Lydia. Jordan will have to put up either Michele or Russell for the other nominee. Faced with that choice, Lydia and Kevin vote out the new addition, while either Russell or Michele votes out Natalie.
And that puts all of the power right back into Jeff's hands. If Jeff votes out one of his own alliance in a preemptive strike, Jordan would vote to break the tie. You'd have to think she'd stay loyal to Jeff.
Two weeks ago, I wouldn't have thought it possible, but Jeff's shown he's a much better game player than we realized. His use of the Coup D'etat dropped the hammer on the game and cleared the way for him and Jordan to seize power. Now with a chance to knock out a friendly rival and eliminate Russell or Michele with a surgical strike, I think he'd have to consider it.
Of course, if he wins the POV, he and Jordan might have this plan cooked up already. Based on last week, anything's possible.

I'm confused. If Kevin wins the POV and takes off Lydia or Natalie, and then Jeff back doors Russel or Michelle, there still wouldn't be a tie for Jordan to break. The only way there would be a tie is if things stay the same, Michelle and Russell vote for Natalie/Lydia and then Kevin and Jeff vote for the other nominee. Jordan can't be loyal in that sense because she would have no way of knowing who voted for whom.
if jeff told jordan who he was voting 4 ahead of time then she culd break the tie an vote 4 the person jeff did. therefore she wuld be stayin loyal to jeff.
everyone knows whats gona happen . natalie, lydia than kevin will be evicted. the next two weeks could be boring besides the mental breakdowns and childish behavior. russell will try to bully his way to the final two. jeff needs to take off the purple dinosaur suit and realize this. take out russell while they can.
