I think that Kathy is probably the smartest female "player" in the game, if she can keep from being perceived as a "boss" and still "strong" enough to keep on the individual teams. Her only weakness in the game is lack of another player from her season with whom to bond at the merge (i.e. Team Africa has a built-in alliance if all three men make it to the merge). However, this might be a strength in that she may be able to pick the strongest alliance and ride their coattails to the final four when anything can happen. Go Kathy (she should have won Marquesa, Vecepia did not deserve to be in the final two). 'squeek'

She has and likely will team up with Rob M. briefly but I think Shii Ann would be a better ally.

I totally agree, Konamouse, about Vecepia. She is the least deserving of any winner, in my opinion. Glad Kathy is back.
