:)  I'm telling you guys. He's doomed. And I really think if he were the death it would be a distressing one for us, whether we like him or not. We'd have to deal with Molly and Arthur weeping and falling apart, with Ron barely speaking, with Ginny crying through dinners, etc. It would be really awful to watch the Weasleys go through all that, so my guess goes for Percy. 

And I feel more and more confirmed with every post I read. But we should also note that I typed "Percy" in Google.com and found countless "famous" Percys, so if JKR based him on someone, it's going to be difficult to decide which one.

And, of course, I object to the notion that a conscientious objector is a coward. :)
