Reading some other people's theories I had a thought I figured I'd share...
Someone said Haffner is not Red John because he wouldn't have had to bug the CBI. Good point. Going along with that point, Bertrum, Smith and McAllister wouldn't have to do that either. Stiles wouldn't either since he has Haffner in Visualize.. Someone also pointed out McAllister had a distance to cover after Jane did the interview and the time when Red John murdered his family. Another good point. I was just thinking...IF Partridge is Red John, wouldn't he have had to bug the CBI? He can't just show up to work like before since obviously he is supposed to be dead. Another "if..." IF Bertrum is in this "Tyger, Tyger" deal, and IF they are essentially all Red John followers, if would have been simple to cover up a fake death. Bertrum was the first on the scene and we've never seen a body. We saw Timothy Carter's body in the morgue...good enough for me there. I just think it's strange that we haven't seen or heard of him since. Heller said we'd be disappointed when we discover Red John's identity...most people suspected Partridge from the beginning, and he's sort of the most logical choice so...maybe that'd be disappointing? If I had to pick someone I'd go with Partridge...
