Draco's not substantial enough to be evil; he's the diet Pepsi of
evil, a pale shadow of the real thing (ie, his father).  Draco would
wet himself if he ever came into real contact with Voldemort, without
his father or mother there to protect him.

I read on an HP site somewhere that someone called Draco, Crabbe and
Goyle (and friends) the "Death Snackers", because they weren't tough
enough to be Death Eaters.  I rather liked that description.

Draco's malevelence is usually too petty, too personal, too immediate
to really qualify as evil or dangerous.  He's a cypher, representing
narrow-minded purebloodism at its most pathetic.  I doubt if he'll
get killed, except perhaps by accident or by "friendly fire" from his
own DE side.  He doesn't strike me as the type to get in harm's way
if he can avoid it.
