  As for Draco, as soon as he comes of age, I think he will be a lot 
  more interesting. ( Get your minds out of the gutters ;) ) I think 
  that he is holding back because he is still under the influence of 
  his parents and the watchful eye of the staff. Bring it on Draco! I 
  want to see Draco lose his mind and inflict his insanity on everyone. ;)

  I think we're definitely going to get bad-ass Draco in book 6.  It's been childish bullying up to this point.  Draco's never had a real personal reason to hate Harry before.  There was the snub in PS/SS, but that really wasn't that big a deal.  Then in book 5 we get this:

  pg. 851 American edition
  "   he looked back at Harry and said in a low voice, "You're dead, Potter"   "

   snip

  "    Malfoy looked angrier than Harry had ever seen him.    "

  snip

  "    "You're going to pay, said Malfoy in a voice barely louder than a whisper.  I'm going to make you pay for what you've done to my father..."    "


  This is going to be a whole lot worse than making Potter stinks badges.  In fact, he seemed to move on to Ron in OoP, because he got a kick out of all that bullying .  Now it's going to be about revenge, not kicks.  He has a real, personal reason to hate Harry now.  Also, lets not forget how strongly he feels about Hermione's Mudbloodesness (is that a word?!)  I've been waiting for him to do something to her since book 2.  He knows hurting Hermione would hurt Harry.  

   Draco can do some serious damage, I have no doubt.
