I have been thinking about this, and has anyone thought up some of the less
obvious answers(Gambit,Bishop,and Wolvie to an extent).  Lets try!
	Cyclops: not a chance
	Jean Grey: possiblly but they have used her to much, but she has
		   come back from the dead a number of times.
	Storm: Nah.
	Forge: too nuch is known about him, plus he is going to marry Storm(or
	       fall in love with Mastique)
	Iceman: not even close to powerful enough.
	Archangel: who knows what those wings could really do. think about it.
	Wolverine: a good chance, but him becoming a villian would be very
		   unprofitable.
	Beast: furr people can't be traitors
	Banshee:  nah
	Legion: dead!(but when did that ever stop anyone) remember, telepaths
		have been known to transfer their mins into other bodies.
	Colossus: The paragon of all that is noble; NEVER!
	Rouge:  She was once a bad guy
	Bishop: Seems like a winner, but to dedicated to the Dream.
	Gambit:  Marvel may have planned it that way in the beginning, but
		 but with such a success, I bet someone had to do some quick
		 rewrites.
	Mastique: she is hanging around the X-mansion now and is was a Bad guy
	Psylock: She too darn goodlooking, right?  Well, wait a minute.  The 
		 Hand did brainwash her.  Mojo and Spiral did take her through
		 the Bodde Shoppe.  She has had access to the Manderian's rings
		 and his mind.  That could make her very dangerous indeed.
	Jubilee: Nobody likes her.  the X-men know less of her past than
		 they know about Gambit.  The limits of her powers are
		 undefined and still growing(remember what she did at
		 Manderian's place.  And she is always complaining about
		 not trusting someone or hating something. ANd she changes
		 sides real quick(she likes Gambit she doesn't like gambit)
		 Hmmmm...would be a niffty suprise.
	Cable(or Stryfe): another mystery.  The future Cannonball(in
			  Scattershot mentions the big mistake they made in
			  trusting him. And he does keep his powers a secret
	Any other X-forcers:  none are really cut out for the part.
	X-factor: get serious.
	
	
	Anyone else got some Ideas?
