I dont think it's the orbit that makes some want to demote Pluto. It's the fact that it's size isn't as big as what we would normally call a planet. There are many objects beyond pluto that are about the same size or larger. Some even have thier own moons like Pluto. If.. you can even consider Pluto's moon a moon. (Isn't it the same size as Pluto or close enough or something?)
So if you call such a small rock a planet then you have to call every other rock that size a planet as well. Which would increase our solar system alot. Also, how far do you go out? To the point that our sun can't hold onto something? If that's the case our solar system is going to get much, much larger. Personally, I dont really care if they no longer consider it a planet. I also do not care if they decide to just add the rest of the large objects out there to the list of planets. As we explorer further out and advance we're going to only encounter more and more. Sooner or later we're going to discover things that change our outlook on our little part of the galaxy. It's happened in the past and it's only going to happen again. How ya doing, buddy?

Well, Pluto may be out now but there could be a new planet. As it has been mentioned, 2003 UB313 (Xena) has been talked about becoming a planet.
It probably has a good chance at becoming the new 9th planet. It certainly is larger than Pluto after all. Oh, I heard the decision on the news this morning. They explained that while Pluto wont be called a planet now it, and other objects like it in that belt, will be classified as a "Dwarf Planet". There's nowhere I can't reach.
