Potioncat:
So far there has been no firm JKR hint that Slytherins will be 
anything other than the baddies.
There have been vague hints (or rather some of us have inferred 
vague hints) that we may be surprised with some good Slytherins.

Alla:

Agreed


Potioncat:

What if, the hat sorts you according to ambition/cunning and being 
of Pure blood, but not necessarily according to your pureblood 
mindset?  For expample, when I was in junior high (the year our 
schools were integrated) if you put all the white students in one 
room, a great many would have been pureblood racists.  But not all 
of us.  And some of us would have been in the process of un-learning 
years of training, although not all way there yet.


Alla:

Agreed again. And that is why we are awaiting the good Slytherins, 
right? I do hope that they are not all lost causes, but do you see 
Draco racing to save the Light? Do you have any doubt about HIS 
mindset?

 
Potioncat: just for thought, not to start a raging debate.

Alla:
LOL!
