barmaid:

I mean win Draco over to the side of the good guys.  DD and Harry and 
the Order and all the anti-LV troops.  So yes, Draco is already "won 
over" by Snape <snip>, but 
he is not won over to Snape as fighter against LV.  <snip>  Draco does trust 
Snape.  That is in fact one of the reasons I 
see some hope for Draco.  If Snape,<snip>, can be 
against LV, then maybe Draco can find place in that part of the WW 
too.<snip>

Chancie:
Ok, I understand what your saying now.  The only question I still Have about 
this is, in order for this to happen, Snape has to be "outed" as a Order 
member!  With Draco's new found hatred for Harry, (due to the fact he's the reason 
Lucius is in Azkaban) I have a hard time thinking he's going to back down from 
his vendetta.  I too would like to see Draco as more than a just all out bad 
kid.  (I personaly don't think there is such a think as a person who has no 
hope of being a productive member of society....but that's a WHOLE other story, 
so I'll spare you from that =D )  I just don't see Draco turning his back on 
his father whom he clearly admires to go to Harry's side!  I see Draco as the 
type of person who would be spiteful enough to fight for something, just to 
piss his enemies off.  Does anyone else see this?
