However, Bebe isn't in Drag U either. That could be a sign.
Maybe they picked people who have tv personalities? I think Tyra lacks a personality other than being annoying. She also doesn't really have an original style. Her hair is almost always just an imitation of Ru's.
Even so, there's been a lot of speculation that Tyra has won (a complete tragedy if she has, in my opinion).
I did the "Raven + Jujubee - Tyra - Bebe = Tyra possibly wins" math too, but I'm still holding out hope that Juju takes it and Bebe was just unavailable. :/ anansie_s's logic about Drag U already being in the can is also a thin straw of hope I'm clinging to.
One of the messages RuPaul has tried to convey throughout her career (as told to me by someone on another board who is allegedly in Ru's camp) is that one gets much farther by being nice than by being nasty. So based on the combination of both talent and behavior, yes, I think Jujubee should win.
Now if RuPaul doesn't care if a "nice" queen wins Drag Race, then sure, it's anyone's game. But if she intends to retain her ethical stance, Juju is the only one of the three who qualifies.
And on a personal note, I don't believe in rewarding objectionable people. Tyra is gorgeous and Raven is an incredible actress, but talent should never excuse poor behavior. Not for Mel Gibson, not for Chris Brown, and not for any of these drag queens.
