Betsy Hp:
You mean, what Draco *said*.  He didn't actually *do* anything.  So 
Harry could have argued back, though that would probably have been a 
waste of time.  And I don't think Harry (or Ron or Hermione) were in a 
state of mind to allow them to channel Dumbledore.

Forcing Draco out of their compartment would have been one option.  
Threatening him if he refused to leave was another.
