It's MS tool of choice for IE. Which petty much guarantees that any alternative browsers must support it. Now if Silverlight took off big style, and MS adopt Ruby like they did Python through IronPython, then it could, but so could any other language that would compile to MSIL.
At that point it would come down pretty much to language preference.
