I do agree that Cersei is out of allies and now she is turning to LF who will gladly stab her in the back when the time is right.

Definitely this.

I don't think LF has any intention of launching an attack against Stannis at Winterfell. I think he is just setting himself up in case somehow Stannis is defeated. The Boltons would be weakened and he could swoop in and crush them.

I think his plan is to let Mannis and his army defeat the Boltons and take Winterfell...which would mean that Roose/Ramsay are dead, which would mean that Sansa is now widowed and he can swoop in and marry her. He's already played her so perfectly that she'd marry him in a heartbeat, and then there's the whole thing about how he could never have Catelyn, so Sansa is the next best thing. And that would unite Winterfell and The Eyrie, solidifying the North.

If Stannis defeats the Boltons he could turn on Cersei and clear the way for Stannis to take the iron throne.

I don't think LF actually plans to do anything to get his hands dirty, although I do think that if it came down to it, he would merk Cersei in a second. But I think he will continue to play both sides and let Cersei drown herself in a sea of greed. He knows that if he sits back and lets things play out that Mannis can take the North (leaving it open perhaps), and will then march right on into Winterfell and take it easily. No doubt his army can defeat the Faith Militant pretty easily. Then LF peaces out of K'sL, heads back to the Eyrie, marries Sansa, and rules the North.
