Ah, here's where it gets tricky.  See, I think neither of them are actually
"good."  They're just too stupid (especially Lockhart) to be of use to the
dark side.  What would Voldemort want with an idiot like Lockhart, for
example.  Fudge may turn out a bit trickier than that though, he certainly
doesn't seem to be "good" right now.

My only defense here is a weak one.  Perhaps Lucius could eventually get
ticked off at Voldemort if he doesn't get a high enough position for
himself, and turn on him in a quest for power.  Not turn to the good side,
mind you, but in essence aid the good side unintentionally by turning
against Voldemort.  Make sense?  No?  Well, best I could do. :)
