Draco doesn't have the brains or the initiative.  Lucius, on the 
other hand, might make a fine replacement.

In my mind, this ties in with the thread about what Harry will do 
after Book 7, if he survives.  Every hero needs a villian.  Most 
posts I've read seem to think Harry will either become an auror (more 
likely in my opinion), or will retire to the county living off a 
percentage of the Gred and Forge business.

These options both sound anti-climactic to me, unless a suitable 
villian replaces Voldemort.
