I just thought I'd throw out the question for all you Draco fans out 
there. Is there more evidence in OoP for "Redeemable Draco"?

Personally, I've never liked Draco. The only way that I thought he 
could turn into one of the good guys would be if he, for some reason, 
examined the kind of stuff he's learned all his life as a good Malfoy 
and decide that maybe what Daddy Lucius was teaching him was wrong.  

I'm in the midst of my second read of the book.  A much slower and 
careful read, so I'm picking up a lot more details than the first 
time when I was roaring though it like a tsunami.  Anyway, while I 
know I've only covered some of Draco's scenes, he strikes me as one 
of the characters that has had little, if any, character 
development.  If anything, he strikes me as becoming even more of a 
stock character.  But, perhaps the Draco fans should be the ones to 
comment.  Redeemable? Dead sexy? <Yawn> We've seen this act before?  
Junior DE?

What's the verdict?
