The girl who's the asst. to the Dem Strategist is Lesley. Lindsay graduated from high school in Fayetteville, NC.... I googled and found a Lindsay Yenter who graduated from a school there and is about 24. She graduated from U of Nevada, Reno. I believe she's living in Orange County (maybe Irvine), CA. (Pretty sure I read that somewhere a couple of days ago. Hope that helps.

BTW, google Lindsay's dad. All kinds of cool stuff about his promotion to Major General earlier this year.

If you go to the Fort Leonard Wood facebook page - [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] - and scroll down just a bit you'll see a HUGE climbing wall..... perhaps that 's some of the fun Sean will be having on hometown's!!! Perhaps they'll even supply a drill sergeant.

Oops. I read the caption more closely- it's a repelling wall- it's still huge!

Thanks - that's all good stuff. I wonder what she does for a living?

She graduated in 2011 from UNevada Reno with a bachelor of science in Education...

So, far we haven't heard what she did for a living. Presently, she is a Reality TV personality. Irvine is in the LA area. The gals, on Bachelor, are a special breed of gals, who welcome TV exposure, as a source of matchmaking, etc.. Most are fans of the show. And, they welcome the public/worldwide exposure. I guess the TV exposure spices up their lives. It's exciting. They become Reality TV personalities. I think some really think they need help in their love lives. Maybe, they think their love lives are going nowhere. So, why not? And, they welcome the fan mail, travel, and career potential, etc. So, if they don't win Bachelor's heart, the consolation prizes are pretty good. And, they may meet a nice guy through their public exposure.

PS. Friends and family may instigate the initial application, to the show, because they know their friend/family member has a good Reality TV/Entertainer personality. Many of the graduates go back to their former jobs. But, many get jobs in the entertainment industry. In Whitefish, Lindsay looked really comfortable in front of the TV camera. Sean looked more shy. But, looks can be deceiving. And, I could be wrong about all of this. I usually am. But, I see Lindsay going into some facet of the entertainment industry, if she doesn't become a momma first.

There's entertainment, and then there's entertainment. Irvine, while not a backwater, is not LA- it's a good hour's drive. She does look like she's comfortable in front of the camera (from the little we've seen), but Dallas is not exactly a small town and there's a lot of media involvement there- if that's what she wants, she can pursue it. Not everyone is dissatisfied with local (albeit decent sized market) media like Ali was. And Sean isn't really uncomfortable with the camera- I think he's careful about kissing in large crowds- even though he's in front of the camera 24-7, I think he'll try not to kiss the girls when other girls are around,

I agree, jcrbil. Sean won't try to create jealousies. But, I almost think the producers were trying to create jealousies, with the canoe date. One gal got to be with Sean, while the other gals went in other canoes. Jealousy is good for business. The producers want to film cat fights. What do you think?

I do think they'll try to stir up the drama.... they'll find one or two of the girls who are prone to jealousy who they'll convince Sean to keep around (at least through Canada) for drama.... and by now the drama shifts to Sean- and how he struggles with sending girls home gently, knowing they've formed attachments. I think that's why they wanted him to do this, frankly, because the men in the last few seasons haven't exactly treated the girls well and they (production) have gotten slammed by that- Sean will treat them well even if they're not for him. They (the girls) may still not be happy (Selma?), but I don't think we'll see Sean be rude or intentionally insensitive. The real question is if the right girl is really there for him.
