If it 'reveals too much', logic woud suggest that Snape's patronus would 
definitely show which side he is on.
Since I'm firmly in the 'Snape's a White Hat' camp, my guess would be that 
his patronus is a phoenix, just like Dumbledore's.
It would make sense too. Those two have been joined at the hip, playing 
'good cop - bad cop' for *years* (really, Snape gliding billowy through the 
halls,with his slicked back hair like the Demon King from a Christmas 
Pantomime and Albus Dumbledore with his spangly robes, his sweets and his 
twinkle - they are laying it on quite *thick*, don't you think?) They are 
two sides of the same coin, so why wouldn't they have the same patronus?
