As any of you who follow the series probably know, somebody important is supposed to be killed off in this book. I don't know who it is (though I've read two chapters) and haven't consulted any Potter-related rumor mills. Based on what I know at this point, my casino (if I had one) would place the odds for who will get killed as follows:
Snape- 3:1
Ron- 4:1
Dumbledore- 6:1
Hagrid- 10:1
Hermione- 40:1
McGonagall- OFF
If any of you already know the answer somehow, eat poop.
