[net.tv.soaps] OK, who shot Bobby Ewing?

I doubt that I'll get a lot of feedback on this, since it's only 5 days until
the mystery is over, but I'll take a shot on who shot Bobby Ewing, and why.

I believe that it was Edgar Randolph who did it, because of all the people who
were J.R.'s enemies he was the most wronged, having been blackmailed.  He had
the biggest story to hide, and seemed to be the most distraught about the
tricks J.R. pulled on him.

Now, what about the others?

Peter couldn't have done it -- he was such a gentle person, I find it hard to
believe that he could hurt (let alone kill) anyone.

Cliff certainly had good enough reason to kill J.R., but he was in such bad
shape when he left his apartment I doubt he could've held a gun, let alone
shot anyone.

Sue Ellen, like Peter, I cannot believe could kill anyone.  Also, no matter
how much she hates J.R., he is her husband.

Vaughan Leland was just a loser (luser) in a bad deal, no way he's going to
risk a murder rap over that.

Katherine was blackmailed by J.R. also, but I find it hard to believe that she
would kill him.

An aside:  Pam mysteriously vanished, so she's a suspect, but like Peter and
Sue Ellen, I can't see how she could commit murder.  She's not evil enough.

Have I left out anyone??

I believe that Katherine shot Bobby, and that she did it intentionally.  
First, in the last episode, she said something about if she couldn't have 
Bobby, noone else would.  Second, she is in a different series this season, 
thus she won't be returning to Dallas.  I believe she shot Bobby and 
then herself.

I dont think Katherine shot herself. (at least not yet). Because she
is still scheduled to appear on a few eposides this year.
