One thing I noticed...

When Voldemort possesed Harry in the MoM, Harry was begging 
Dumbledore to kill him to end the pain. But as soon as he 
thought "I'll be able to see Sirius again", Voldemort was driven 
from 
his body.

Thoughts?

Now me:
The way I read it is the way Dumbledore explains it...and by the 
way, I find it is an extremely powerful emotional scene in the book. 
Voldermort is able to possess Harry's mind at first because of 
Harry's weakened state and anger but eventually has to let 
his "victim" go because of the love in Harry's heart. Just thinking 
of Sirius made love surge through Harry and this is what drove 
Voldermort away and IMHO is what will save Harry in the end.
Harry is noble, good and loving...Voldermort and Harry are like 
night and day because one cannot love and the other one can. 
Powerful magic, that is!
