Boyd:"That's why I *can't* see him as Minister. Look, with each book
Harry's world has become darker and his task has become harder. Making
Arthur, a supporter of Harry, Minister of Magic would be simply too
easy for Harry plotwise.

IMHO JKR will continue alienating Harry from those who care for him,
and the MoM will continue to be ineffective, if not an outright opponent."

Arthur won't be the new Minister - JKR said so - but Harry won't have
the same problem with the Ministry he did in OoP year.  Fudge is toast
and Dumbledore calls the shots now.  Harry and Dumbledore are popular.  

This next year will be about external strife, I believe, not
persecution of Harry by his own.  He's likely to lose friends to
Voldemort, perhaps very close friends.

I never thought Arthur would be Minister.  Even JKR can't take someone
the wizarding public won't accept and make him or her Minister, but I
don't have any idea who it will be.
