Neville as HBP? (was Re: HBP again!)

Shannon asked:

"What if the HBP is Neville?  He has always had a strong presence in the books.  His parents were in the Order.  From what I have read, he comes from a long line of wizards."


DuffyPoo now:

The only problem I can see is that, in CoS, Ron states that Neville is a pure-blood.  "Look at Neville Longbottom -- He's pure-blood and he can hardly stand a cauldron the right way up."  

I was just noting the other day, if there is one thing all these wizard kids know, it is what everyone else's blood status is.  Not the Muggle-borns, like Hermione and Dean Thomas, or Harry, who was raised outside the WW, but the kids who were raised in the WW seem to know everyone's blood-status.
