I'd love for this to happen, I hate that I get the feeling Anna is supposed to be the only truly good character on the Show. Everyone, EVERYONE, from the angels and demons to Dean and Sam themselves have such a moral greyness about them that Anna doesn't fit into the entire theme and mood of the season unless she too has a dark side. And I can see her doing it, out of fear if nothing else, out of a desire to survive, which is after all, the only reason she got her grace back. Not to rejoin the fight or protect Sam and Dean (they didn't need protecting until they brought Alastair into the picture, so it's her fault they got into trouble in the first place, selfish much?) but just because she didn't want to die. So I can see her killing angels in a thoroughly selfish 'me or them' kind of way.
All I know is, there's no other character cast for this episode, and since we can be pretty damn sure it ain't Sam or Dean, and Alastair's been captive so it can't be him, and Castiel is clearly still fighting the good fight, that leaves Ruby, Uriel or Anna as the killer.
(Also, I'd like to think the whole conversation with Castiel is her trying to win him over, or better yet, him trying to trap her into admitting to something.)
Besides, if it's not any of the above, then why is she in the freakin' episode anyway??? What possible cause could she serve that Sam and Castiel couldn't? So she's supposedly on Dean's side, but shouldn't Sam and Castiel alone be able to reach the appropriate conclusion without miss I'm-a-big-angel-traitor-but-I'm-still-holier-than-thou there to prod them along? I'd rather see Castiel's doubts shaken by Sam and Dean than Anna.
