Potioncat:
Hi, Darrin, welcome to the other side.

Although it does exist on some other Lists, most of the posts I've 
seen don't so much favor Slytherin, as look for the surprise in 
Slytherin.  It feels as if we've been set up to dislike the House, 
and knowing JKR as we do, we're expecting someone good to show up.  

A lot of the defenders have been saying that many of the qualities 
that "belong" to Slytherin, are qualities not vices in order to 
support the ideas that Slytherin House itself is not inately bad.  

And of course if JKR does not surprise us, that will surprise us too.
