How Will It End - Predictions from Keith Olbermann

Last night, on MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann, his number one
story was on how DH will turn out.

I guess he plays our game as well (and I thought he just was making
fun of the Harry Potter series these last couple of years - HA! 
Closet HP fan, he is)  Some of his theories mesh quite nicely with
many of our members here - the Horocrux!Harry, DDM!Snape just to name
a couple. 

Here is the link to the transcript of his predictions:

please note, he does mention that hacker's stuff (briefly), so, if you
don't want to know what that hacker said (which IS trite), you may
wish to skip over his predictions.

I thought it was fascinating read and so on track with what we do here :)

For those who have read the link, or even saw his show last night,
what do YOU think?  Do you think that Olbermann is on the right track?

Please - Whether you like Olbermann or not, let's not discuss our
personal views on him and let's try to focus on the predictions he's
made, ok?
 
just to wet your appetite, here are some snips from his article:

"In book number six, "Harry Potter and Half Blood Prince," Rowling
already killed off Dumbledore, the popular headmaster at the wizarding
school Hogwarts, and got such a bad vibe and so many nightmares out of
it that much of those Potty over Potter are almost demanding the
headmaster be reincarnated for the finale.
 
So sacrificing more of Harry's pals and heroes would again seem to be
just bad business. 

But one hint, publicly offered in the advertising for the last book,
asks the question whether the greasy Professor Snape, Dumbledore's
murderer, was a friend to Harry or his worst enemy. Snape has finally,
after years of trying, ascended to his dream job, teaching Harry and
the others Defense Against the Dark Arts. 

In Snape, and in Defense Against the Dark Arts, may rest the
explanation of how this series ends. 

The most recent book went into excruciating detail about the concept
of a horcrux, perhaps the darkest art in wizardry. In "Harry Potter
and the Half Blood Prince," we are told that while in the act of
murdering someone, a dark wizard can divide his soul so that he might
live on in part, even if his corporeal body expires. He can store the
parts of the soul in objects, or, as seen in an earlier book, in a
living thing, the big snake in the basement.  "
