As much as I don't like it, I think it is totally possible that J.K. Rowling might kill off Harry. If you remember the article, she said that there is a good side to killing off your main character. When she is dead and gone, no one will be able to come back and write Harry because he already died; it would be satisfactory to know that no one will come back and take over you masterpiece.
Here is a list of people besides Harry that I think might perish.
Ron: Besides being Harry's best mate, we haven't really seen him prove himself in times of danger and battle. He showed his strengths back in Book 1 when during the giant chess match during the hunt for the Philosopher's Stone. There is a theory that Ron will sacrifice himself for Harry in the final match against Voldemort.
Pettigrew: Do I have to explain it? Let's see... He betrayed the Potters, he helped Voldemort get his body back, and is an all-around bad guy. I think it's time to go, and that the life-debt that he has to Harry will be involved somehow.
Draco: I think that apart from being "bad", Draco is really a tragic character. His family are Death Eaters. He's got a lot to live up to. I got the kind of feeling that he was forced in the Book 6 to serve Voldemort. All the stress he underwent, the frustration, the anxiety... I mean, the poor boy was misguided. Remember that he is only about 17. People can make horrible mistakes when they are at that age. Unfortunately in Draco's case, it might cost him his life. He's in too deep.
Professor Trelawney: I think there is a possibility of her death in Book 7. She's always predicting how people will die, and seeing strange, dark omens everywhere. I think that is a kind of subtle foreshadowing. She sees death everywhere, why can't it be hers? I just wonder how this would play out, and how important it would be to the actual plot.
Percy: Hmm... Anyone sure which side he is really on?
Who will get a reprieve? (JKR said in a very recent interview that she gave a certain character a reprieve from dying) I have an inkling that it is one of the Dursleys.... or Snape.

I think she is going to get rid of Voldemort, but as to the second main character you could lose Hermione or Ron - but the possibility would be Ron. If you think about it in Book 5 Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix the prophecy said that neither could live while the other was alive - meaning that Harry or Voldemort would die. So I don't think she would get rid of both. Besides she said she was going to get rid of these characters so that there can't be a sequel written by someone else.

I don't think Harry, Ron, or Hermione will die. I do, however, think Snape will be one of the big characters to go -- I think he'll give his life to help end Voldemort's (because I don't buy that he's gone evil). I also think Hagrid is another character who is at risk, as he's the last major adult figure in Harry's life, and each book has been about stripping those away so Harry can learn to be an adult and stand on his own. Either way, I can't wait for the book to come out!

book 7 in the harry potter series is supposed to be the last one jk rowling writes, so i'm guessing she's gonna kill of harry potter and voldemort so there would be no way to continue the series

I wouldn't be surprised if Harry gets the axe. It's the classic tragic tale of any character labeled as "the chosen one." I.e. Anakin, Neo, Jesus.
