Just some questions :1, How is it possible for Reede Smith to be on Jane`s list, when we all know that Red John is a slim person (we`ve all seen him in the last episode of season two - it appears to be a tall, slim men). Patrick did see him. He knows that. So why would he put Smith there?
2. Have you noticed that, whenever he watches TV, Jane whatches TIGERS (or other animals) going after their prays and catching them? Is he trying to find out something, or does he just have a guilty pleasure in watching other creatures suffering? And, more important, it appears to have this in common with Red John. I think he`s analyzing the tyger`s behavior in order to discover why did RJ recite the "Tyger" poem.

*Just a thought: I think all the 7 suspects have something in common; one of them is the real RJ, and the other six are related to him somehow. 

And I saved the best for the end: We see a trailer of the second episode of season 2 where Jane says that all this time he has been one step ahead of RJ. My guess? THE LIST thing.
When Kirkland broke into his room and discovered Jane`s work, it was, obviously, a trick carefully orchestrated by Jane. So I think Jane had a sort of game in mind, like "whoever will broke into his roof has something to do with Red John: maybe he is an informant, or maybe he is the actual Red John". There`s the trick, I guess. I think the in Jane`s mind there are less than 7 (now 6 remaining) suspects. My guess? He already has a top three. 

Someone else who thinks that Gale Bertram being Red John is too obvious.
Definitely an accomplice, but not Red John. Why would Bruno Heller make
it so easy for the viewers.
We can speculate a lot of who is Red
John, weather Partridge died or dint die, or if it is the mentalist Bret
Stiles who doesnt fit the description Harker gave, maybe its Bob
Kirkland but on the other hand he wasnt recognized by those who knew Red
John etc. My point is that those seven on the list, any of them could
be Red John. The writers are of course very skillful and therefore gave
them abilities that could point them out as Red John but also deny them.
I think its not a good idea to try to find who Red John is by searching
the clues that has been told. I believe the answer is in the text "he
is mar". This is the one of the clues that has been forgotten or not
talked about. There may be more similar clues but i cant think of them
right now. I also believe that when Red John is revealed, it  will make
perfect sense.

Gale Bertram calling Jane "the wonder boy" is on
big clue, but Bertram doesnt fit the physical description at all. Brett
Stiles and Jane are both mentalist but Stiles doesnt fit the description
at all. I havent even begun with the voice that only suits Partridge.

"he is mar"
mar = ocean in spanish
Written fro the left or right maybe give the text from a different spelling. Maybe reversed?
Maybe the text isnt finished.

Anyway even this doesnt make sense, why would Red John not fully kill his victims...
I
am perfectly happy with waiting and see till episode 8 and I think no
one will have the right to say "I told you so" because of the fact that
every theory could easily be countered.

BTW Lorelei is a beauty. I hope she returns..

I still think it’s Partridge and that his death in the season premiere is a ruse.

It’s like the plot of the book “And Then There Were None” where all of the suspects supposedly died, only to have one of them turn out to be the killer, after they staged their own death.

Bruno Heller has stated that “it was very important that Partridge die at this point in the story.” And I think that is so that he would no longer be a suspect.

The way Partridge died, also does not seem in keeping with a Red John murder. He was found in a closet? No red smiley face to strike terror into the person that finds him before the body is discovered? That’s his classic M.O. and this doesn’t resonate with that.

 Also Partridge is partially alive when Lisbon finds him. Alive enough to quote William Blake. When is the last time Red John left someone half-dead?I think Partridge is Red John, and is working with someone, who helped him stage his own death to cast off suspicion. Bruno Heller stated of the final scene of episode 1 that “embedded in that scene is a big clue to the identity of Red John that will pay off big time later.”If you watch closely. The person who Jane is talking two is different from the person holding the phone, indicating that there are two people there. The person who paints the smiley face on Lisbon is not the real Red John. First, he paints it on her face (huh?), Second, he uses only two fingers instead of three (which both Jane and Partridge would know), finally, he paints the smiley face counter clockwise, not clockwise like in other Red John murders. That is the clue that I think Heller wants to give, but he distracts us with the red herring of the bloody blade.One other clue which may or may not be relevant is the title of the next episode Black Winged Red Bird which refers to a Scarlet Tanager. The Scarlet Tanager is a poem written by James Russell Lowell, a romantic poet like William Blake who wrote “The Tyger” which Red John often quotes as well as painted “A Brace of Partridge.”Far from casting off my suspicion, Partridges apparent death only seals it more for me that he’s Red John. Bruno Heller also said that we would be disappointed when we found out who Red John was, and most people would probably be disappointed if big bad Red John turned out to be Fangoria watching Brett Partridge.

Bruno Heller did mention to look for clues towards the end of S6X02. The clue that seem to be visible.
- The Doves Or Pigeons, i noticed when lisbon opened that room there was also cages in that room, could the blood be that of the pigeons? could partridges death be faked, i dnt think his dead maybe brett partridge was just a fake identity.
- Tyger Tyger (theres something about this its been uttered before by victims when they where about to die)

Why would brett utter the words Tyger Tyger, he could have just identified his killer?
Red John has always killed his victims he has never left any victim half dead. you always see the smiley face drawn by Red John, before you see the victims body, also i dnt believe for one second that he was interupted thats why he could not complete killing his victim as it seemed to be a settup, anonymous call to tip of cbi? im sorry it just doesnt add up.

My money is still on "Brett Partridge".
