They're all going to have to choose. Jo said it herself as well as 
through Dumbledore's voice. We saw in OOP how Volderot strategizes. 
The information about Sirius was crucial in getting Harry to the 
MOM. So, he goes after people's weaknesses. He attacks the area in 
the person's life that will affect them, or hurt them the most.  

I'm thinking of the scene in COS at Diagon Alley where we find out 
that Draco talks about HRH at home, as Lucius knows who they are 
when Harry is trapped in the cabinet. That's the same kind of 
information that Kreacher provided. Lucius knew that Sirius was 
extremely important to Harry, just as he knew three years ago that 
Ron and Hermione are Harry's best friends. I think Luciusthis 
information will prove useful later in the series.  

I used to think that Ron would possibly betray Harry in the last 
book because he's so insecure about money and acclaim. But, I have 
more faith in him as the books advance. He saw just how big a 
mistake Percy made when he sided against his parents and the order. 
Hermione will never betray Harry or the Order. She just wouldn't, 
she's got too much integrity.  

But, if they aren't likely to betray, then they're targets to be 
used by volderot, just like Sirius.

What about the Dursley's? I've always wondered if Petunia herself 
had the power to invite Voldemort in, if she wanted.. 

Would the Dursley's betray Harry for the piles of Gold that LV would 
offer them? Or, would the Durley's even merrit an offer? Whould they 
just be killed, as LV must know how much anamosity exists between 
the Dursley's and Harry.

Who else?

Hagrid? About as much chance of becoming a death eater as Minister 
of Magic!

Snape? I'm not even gonna touch that one...too greasy!

McGonagall? She's still got secrets waiting to come out yet, not 
enough info. 

The rest of the staff? The astronomy teacher's a suspect, as is her 
class. But, I don't know about the rest of them....

The other students? Neville? I'd say not a chance in H**l! Neville 
will prove himself. I have no doubts. 

The slytherins? Oh, who knows?

Who else will be given a chance to choose? Who will be usefule to 
LV? Who will not?
