As much as I hate the term soul mate (so overused and trite) the 
idea of Ginny being kidnapped is even worse. It would be nothing 
more than her being tied to the railroad tracks with evil Voldemort 
twirling his mustache while, white hat wearing Harry, comes to the 
rescue. I would much rather Ginny were a regular soldier in D's A 
than another helpless damsel in distress, even if she's his 
girlfriend at the time.  I think that's one reason I loved the fact 
that Ron was used during the challenges in GOF because it seemed 
those that needed to be rescued were overwhelmingly female.
