Woo hoo, it looks like our man Jason is poised to become the next Bachelor on ABC. (Did I just hear a few women scream in the distance?) According to the local Seattle newspaper, in a recent ABC poll, 67% viewers of demanded that Jason be selected. I think this is going to be the best bachelor ever! Also, a damn good soap opera as well. God bless Deanna, she’s given new life to the show.

Here is the report:

The ABC series “The Bachelor” set up shop today in Tacoma at the Emerald Queen Casino.

Because 67 percent of ABC’s voters want Kirkland’s Jason Mesnick to be the next Bachelor, it’s shaping up to be his job, if he wants it. He has already had thousands of fans throw phone numbers and addresses at him (at this address), plus he has a son and a job to think about.

Who wouldn’t want to see two Washingtonians get hitched on national TV?

After the recent snafu with Matt and Shayne, it’s time for ABC to start casting some real people. It’s much more fun to watch and it will give hope to millions of single moms and dads that “happily ever after” does exist. I’m crossing my fingers and toes.
