Um.  The point is not whether or not JKR *can* flesh Ginny out and 
develop her as a character and as a potential love interest for 
Harry.  I'm very, very confident that she *can.* 

The question, guys, is why *Hasn't* she done so already if it's so 
clear that Ginny is to be The Love of the Hero?!  Why leave Ginny a 
mystery?  Why not even hardly mention her in passing in the last half 
of the last book?  It just seems to me that Ginny might really just 
be a background character.  Maybe that's all there is to it.  :--)
