I agree, and I'll even go on to say that while he doesn't realize 
it, Harry has feelings for Hermione. She was the one who talked him 
out of Buckbeak's room after they came back from St. Mungo's. She's 
the voice of his concious. And did you notice the attention to their 
physical contact? She holds onto his arm, he pulls her away from 
Grawp, etc.? I'm not subscribing to the "Ron turns bad" theory - but 
if there's going to be a blow up in book 6, it could very well be 
over Hermione. I can't see this turning Ron bad, because he'd never 
get Hermione back by going to the dark side, but it could cause some 
tension. It's also a parallel to James and Snape, if they were both 
in love with Lily, which has been suggested.
