Riding coattails is letting somebody do all the hard work for you. Nobody's talking about making no decisions on your own. Everybody makes their own decisions. Nobody is so manipulated that they cannot think for themselves. Colby just thought he could win against Tina. She didn't do anything to him. He has said himself that he wanted to take Tina over Keith because she was more deserving. I think that's stupid personally but whatever he wants to do that's his decision. Not Tina's. So like I said she won because she rode his coattails and let him let her win. I'm not saying she shouldn't have done that but that's still riding coattails. Kelly taking Richard to the end was different because she would be stupid not to. Same with Neleh taking Vecepia.
