Most likely so, but probably not the day the expansion launches.
It will likely take months before it happens... you might as well pay the extra $10.
EDIT: Just get the
battle chest
!

I seriously doubt it, ever. It's only $20 USD, anyway. I think the game is a bit too successful for it ever to go any lower. The Battlechest is already the best deal for new players, anyway, since it's technically anywhere from $10-$15 off.

...It's only $20 USD... Where do you find it at that price? The cheapest I've found it is still $30 + tax.
The MSRP is still $29.99, though at online retailers you can typically find it anywhere from $24-27 and GameStop tends to put it on sale pretty often, as well. Popular games ftw! If you're going to buy the expansion at full retail price anyway, you might as well just buy the Battlechest and have an extra WoW account to like give to a friend or take advantage of Recruit-A-Friend or something.

The battlechest is the way to go for beginning players, but if you already have WoW as said here its a good option still (as it comes with BC and what adds up to a free month of WoW for a friend/significant other you have been trying to hook). Or you can just buy BC. It will drop in price eventually but by then you may as well just buy it in the sure to come WotLK and BC combo pack.
But who wants to wait THAT long to get some awesome northrend action?

In reality $20 or even $30, you pay $15 a month for the game, I can't see 2 months worth of payments to be a big deal... Not questioning you or anything, but if someone is so tight on money they can't afford/buy the expansion, then maybe paying $15 a month for a game isn't the greatest idea... If you just want the price to drop, I doubt it will go down much lower, and you may as well just buy it now, since the most you'll save is like $10 and that will be pretty far away anyway.
On a side note, few games drop under $20 in stores (they do, but not so often), and that is only after they've been out a good while. It's usually under $30 now, so there isn't much money to be saved in waiting
