My personal opinion is, that, if there is a spy in the Order, it 
won't be Snape. Mainly because he is still a highly suspicious 
character, and it would IMO be really disappointing, if he turns 
out  to be evil. It would be much more interesting, if someone, who 
is supposed to be nice, is the spy.

Well said! We are looking for someone who is supposed to be 
nice, and close enough to Harry for him to take the betrayal 
personally.  I'd say the candidates are: Dumbledore, Hagrid,  
Hermione, Lupin, Molly and Ron.  Any others?  Most of you know 
which one I'd pick.

Hello all, Fred Waldrop here;

I still stand by what I said in message 82659:
As much as I really do not like Snape, I really do not see him going 
back. Just my opinion though, now to whom I think might be... could 
be... persuaded?
I really hate to say it, but... here goes... Molly Weasley.
The reason I say this is from what slgazit wrote, "If Peter is any 
guide, I'd expect the betrayer to be someone with emotional problems 
and low self esteem". After all, it basically takes someone with high 
self esteem to banish a boggart, because if you have doubts, the 
boggarts banishes you. Plus, seeing as LV is a master of Legilimency, 
if he "reads" Molly, he will see that her greatest fear is her family 
all getting killed, so, he offers her a deal, she helps him, he makes 
sure that all her children lives. And seeing as how Molly wasn't in 
the original OotP, she doesn't or might not compleatly understand 
that she can not trust LV.
Yes, seems silly, but LV is good at getting people to believe him, 
even when what he says seems unbelievable to others. And let's face 
it, see is worried about her children being killed, including Harry. 
And if LV tells her that he will not harm any of them if she gives 
him the information, she would be extreamly tempted.
And, who else would be able to make Harry feel more betrayed than the 
person he is starting to see as a mother?
