re: Crackpot ASOIAF Theories SPOILERS

And that's what makes it so tragic. Because we the readers and Brienne know that Jaime is a reformed man, but most of Westeros won't.

I think out of all the characters Tyrion has the best shot of living till the end because GRRM loves Tyrion. However, I'd rather Tyrion pass away. Would go well with the 'bittersweet' ending George has planned for the series. I think we could all easily predict that characters like Arya, Jaime, even Dany will likely be dead by the end of the series and would be kinda boring if the predictable ones a la Tyrion survive.
