"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
is it any wonder that Jack is THE candidate?
I think it is between Jack and Hurley. Given the arc of the series, it probably makes more sense for Jack = Jacob. Given that the creators said (in season 1) that 'Lost' was a battle between Locke and Jack (they've said so much since then, so I take this with a grain of salt), I wouldn't be surprised if the "final battle" is Jack vs. Locke.

But that's just so BORING. I wanted a Jin and Sun double-act. With lightning and earthquakes.
And I'm done whining.

Our wings are not tired.
I don't know what it is - if it's the writing or the acting that has changed, but Jack hasn't annoyed me this season. Curious.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
There is the sideways-verse. I'm hanging on to some finding happiness there.

javachik, I agree. Jack has been actually really good this season, with moments of badassery, even. I think it helped that he wasn't the de facto leader anymore and, in fact, came to grips with the fact that all this time, he was really only the leader because of de facto.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Could still be Sawyer, no?

The Girl keeps pointing out that Kate was on Jacob's list (at the lighthouse), and that there was no reason why she should be crossed off the other list. And then I remind her that logic and Lost don't really mix.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I've heard discussion that the use of Gene Wilder's S.S. Wonkatina chant from Willy Wonka in one of the priviews was very deliberate. Jacob IS looking for a successor, after all, and doesn't seem overly concerned when bad things happen to the candidates.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I think sideways Locke is going to be the ultimate candidate.
