Some happy thoughts about Kara kicking ass and taking names in Season 3

Since my last post was all "my ship is dying and I'm pissed" I thought I'd do a positive one. Who knew I had it in me?

You know, I wrote this when I was spoiled but hadn't seen the ep. After having seen the Centurions (spelling?) march through the streets, I think anyone willing to stay on New Craprica would be a fool.
It's easy to be the swashbuckling rebel when you know the structure and the hiearchy, but I don't really see Kara as much of a born leader.
I agree completely. She's not a leader like Roslin, Adama or Lee; however, she's got the Starbuck Myth to fall back on. She is a born strategist and has the kind of courage and bravery that inspires others who don't have to deal with her one on one. Myth and kickassery are great motivators for the common people.

If Kara's the head honcho, the leader, I can see her getting weary of it really fast- especially once people start complaining.
True. Kara's shit at dealing,/i> with people. I wonder who is going to fill that "Lee" role in the Resistance? Kara's great for planning and fighting, Chief's great for building, Tigh is great at support details and Roslin will rock at building a grassroots rebellion. Probably Ellen Tigh will take Lee's role ;-)
