I know that Marquel is out of the running, but he tweeted today that he's not the campaigning type. I hope he finds himself a sweet girl soon. He seems like such a gem.

Arie did a guest post on Sean's blog: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/seanlowe/2014/08/arie-how-a-cracker-barrel-waitress-and-a-baptist-mechanic-opened-my-heart/#signup

It's kind of an interesting read, given that he's in the running for the next Bachelor spot.

That is sweet from Arie.

But I'm not convinced The Bachelor would be the place to find the kind of woman he is now saying he wants.

The man has been on quite a personal journey. I wish him the best.

I think people in Chris' thread are basically saying that the job is Chris' but we shall see...

I've never been an Arie "fan", but after reading that post on Sean's blog, I could become a huge fan! I wasn't much on Chris S or Arie for bachelor, but think I might be leaning towards Arie now. Thanks for sharing that.

Wow I was touched reading that from Arie, I wish him well as well. I am still on the fence if he should do it, who knows what TPTB will concoct as the storyboard for him, they might even use his past against him, nothing is beyond them in my opinion.

That was a great blog. Whether the Bachelor is the place for him or not, he obviously has been warming up to the idea for whatever reason. It sounds like he's been through a lot and has now identified he's been hiding all this time.

I'm glad the Paster invited him to his church. If anything at least he is able to come to some sort of clarity on what he wants in life.

I think casting weekend will determine the lead not public opinion and they are stalling.

They need four to six strong potential matches for the lead to pull off a ten episode story arc and that comes down to chemistry.

I think Arie has a great shot if the right girls for him vs a cute rich farmer show up,in. LA for last interview rounds.

jlccaz: Is this a call back weekend or are new girls being seen as well? Because I think for the early castings some/many may not have known Arie was in the mix. I like them both so I will be a happy camper either way, but Arie does bring the sizzle!

Well look who's in the mix.

^I don't think Nick is seriously being considering. I think Sean wanted to list more than two options and there was no other person to list. If it was Sean's choice we all know it would be Marquel hands down.

I remember hearing about Pastor Fred and his sons who helped him with the tear down in Charlotte. I remember how touched he was and I was glad that they were so kind to him. He's had a lot of folks who have helped him with his racing this year. The garage that he uses to store the TORC truck is in Indy and basically another team just opened up their fabulous space to share with him and help. People in the racing world have a lot of respect for Arie. He's a quality guy. We saw that in the way that he treated Emily at the ATFR. But I obviously had no idea that his experiences touched him so deeply. I do recall how deeply Dan Wheldon's death affected him. That's partly why he did the Bachelorette. He needed a break from racing and wanted time to reevaluate, and maybe fall in love.
He really is on a personal journey. He's always worn his heart on his sleeve. Sigh.

I'm afraid if they choose Chris, the ladies exiting the limo will burn down the mansion.

I enjoyed Brad 1.0, but did not want to see him do a Brad 2.0 due to the backlash after his season. I was pleasantly surprised. I loved season 2.
The first season I can remember the fan girl-ism revving into dangerous ground was with Meanna. I liked her well enough with Brad, but felt the writing was on the wall for a huge

A friend of mine was at her ATFR. The crowd was so shocked when she chose Jesse over Jason they BOO'ed her. They had to call in the national guard so many were committing seppuku.

Since then it seems this is a formula--take a cast person people are fond of and turn them into the next season's lead and make them road kill the following season --if they're lucky. If they aren't lucky they end up chopped meat or the next Jeffrey Dahmer. Oh and maybe they find love.

So I can deal with RE--there will be lots of built in shenanigans and pre-fabricated bs. vs Chris who they will have to work a lot harder to manufacture.

OMG Kasha, you have not lost your touch! thumbsup
