With season 2 of GRRM's A Game of Thrones to premiere on Sunday, April 1st on HBO, what are our thoughts...
Here is a link where Kit Harington, (Jon Snow), talks about season two and Ygritte.

From the interview...
We know that this season there's going to be a fight for the throne. The tagline is "War is Coming," so it's obviously looming over everyone at the moment. If Jon were fighting for the throne, who do you think is his biggest threat?
Jon's biggest threat for the throne, not that Jon wants it right now -- but obviously, I want to sit on the throne -- would have to be those dragons. Once those are grown, it's going to be pretty hard to take that girl down. I think she has a good shot. I also think Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) would be the best king. It's the people who want it for the right things, hopefully. Tyrion doesn't want that throne, and there's an old saying that goes, "Those who are best suited for power are the ones who don't want it." Daenerys wants it for the right things, and she wants to liberate people. So I think I would put Daenerys on the throne and give Tyrion's hand to the Queen.
The bolded part I have wondered about this myself. I wonder if he knows something we don't know...
Anyway, on with the new season...
