------------ 
Given that JKR has said we would be very surprised about the identity
of the Half-Blood Prince, has anyone considered that it might be Draco
Malfoy?  Not that I have any canon to support this, but it might be a
great vehicle for Draco's rejection by the Death Eaters, whom he
admires so much.

I realize, of course, that this is very unlikely given how much
resemblance there is between Draco and Lucius; but it goes well with
the idea that Draco's own hubris will ultimately be his undoing. 
Maybe I just like the idea of seeing the look on Malfoy's face when he
finds out he's not as pure-blood as he thought.
 
Any other far-out suggestions?

May not be as far out as you think .....
there was a thread started at HPFGU 114157 and continuing through 
114199, 114230, 114268, among others that present both sides of the
argument backed by canon.    

Arguments from either side can't be ruled out, though one will clearly
be wrong in the end. That's what makes for a good dialogue.
