"It'd be Arthur Weasley, of course!  Even as Ron predicted: "We have 
as much chance of winning the Quidditch Cup as my Dad has of becoming 
Minister of Magic"--or words to that effect.  Well, they won the Cup, 
so I guess Arthur will be the next MoM."--propita

Well this is a little creepy.  I'm sitting here listening to the audio version and came across that phrase exactly as I was reading that phrase.  Very creepy.

And quite probably very true.  Who else would it be?  One would presume it would be someone firmly in the pro-Dumbledore camp and yet not on the front line.  Most of the others in the Order are aurors or teachers.  Arthur has the ministry experience, so why not?  Of course it could be some other administrative person or other not on either side but I would imagine that Dumbledore will be able to virtually hand pick who he wants.
