Yup, it was me (Naama) who said that. And the point I was making was 
not that Draco is not redeemable. If Snape, who was presumably a 
fully fledged DE, can convert to the good side, Draco certainly can. 
The point is that *now* he is a Ku Klux Klan guy (in the sense that 
in his opinions at least, if not in his actions, he is a bloodthirsty 
racist). So, a romance between Hermione and Dracto NOW *is* similar 
to a romance between a Ku Klux Klan guy and a black woman. Thats all.
