I agree that Draco will not become a full-fledged Death Eater.  I 
just can't seem to believe that he is all bad, somehow.  But then, I 
may have a case of Draco poisoning from Cassie Claire's Draco 
fanfics ;-).  But I don't think he will be a potions master.  I tend 
to think/predict that someday he would make an excellent DADA 
teacher.  Why not?  Who better has been brought up, possibly skilled 
at an early age in the Dark Arts?  It probably won't happen, but I 
still think it would be a good outcome for him.
