Karen here,
Has anyone considered a theory that Draco's detour is more of a
personal detour- more of 
crisis of self?  Considering that Lucius is now a Known DE, not an
assumed one, LM will 
surely lose a great deal of his perceived power within the WW and so
will Draco at 
Hogwarts.  Think about what Draco bases who he is on;  being from a
pure blood, very 
wealthly, powerful family.  Lucius will/should lose the powerful part
for sure, at least in 
the MoM,   Can't see the new MoM letting in ANY Known DE.  
Therefore Draco will lose 
"bragging rights"...I don't know if we'll hear too much more about
what is father will do, or 
who his father will report to at the MoM...But then Draco may figure
out that his father has 
more "power" because of his association with LV.  At least people
will fear LM and that gives 
him a certain type of power.. Draco will come to bask in that.   
I think Draco will have 
a "detour" because of his crisis, but will make his way back to be
the same obnoxious git 
we have grown to loath.
