Here's my take on this: Starcraft was a great game (Broodwars included). Blizzard could make a Starcraft 2, but there is a strong possibility that it will suck. Also, it will almost certainly be graphically and technologically quite separate from the original, and look and feel quite different. There is great potential for suckage here, as well. Personally, I don't really want to see another Starcraft game -- it might be great, but I think that there is too much potential for it to suck.
From another perspective, it is an axiom of any art or craft that you should leave the audience wanting more. For an example, see Star Wars ;) . Leave the audience/player wanting more, and they will remember how good a work is. Sate them, give them everything they want, and they will harp on the poor qualities of the work. Leave Starcraft as it is. Don't try to follow it up with something else. Make a new game.
