Carol responds:
Sorry to snip our whole post, but I just can't buy Snape not being the
Half-blood Prince and the person in the tower and the flight scene.
There's just no reason for someone polyjuiced as Snape to be so upset
about Harry using his spells against him, or about James, and we've
been set up since Book 1 for Snape to be a Legilimens. Also, there's
no one we know who could fend off Harry's spells the way Snape did,
and the irony/poignancy is lost if it wasn't Snape who stopped him
from being Crucio'd. (Sorry, Ceridwen. I know this isn't really your
argument, it' hounnyhm's [sp!!]).

As for someone other than a Snape imposter being polyjuiced, you've
considered Tonks. And what about Blaise Zabini lolling against the
column in the Hog's Head? Maybe "he" was Bellatrix and that's how
Rosmerta was Imperio'd?

Or Polyjuiced Crabbe and Goyle could be paving the way for someone
else to use Polyjuice Potion in Book 7. I'm betting on Draco.

Carol, wondering what hounnyhmn (sp) thinks would be accomplished by
having an imposter!Snape as the real HBP
