He pulled it off because Moody was known for being
paranoid and always drinking out of a personal flask.
I think someone whose opinions we have access to would
have noticed if Snape was constantly drinking some
mystery liquid from some personal container. But then
he *is* a potions master and it could just be
expected.

Here is where things get really complicated. Because
if I'm not mistaken Snape wasn't just a spy, he was a
double agent, probably leaking authorized information
from Dumbledore to Voldemort. So he really has an
excuse to not have shown up in the graveyard that
night. He was absolutely surrounded by agents of
goodness (for lack of a better term), and not low
scale agents either-- people like Dumbledore and Fudge
(because even though he's a fool, Fudge is still the
Minister). It would have been uber suspicious if Snape
had run off of the Hogwarts grounds suddenly just
before everything happened and then reappeared soon
after. This is something Voldie would appreciate if he
still wants someone inside Hogwarts, and isn't hell
bent on killing Snape already.
