  Joe: How is Draco a powerful figure? I might not be remembering things right but hasn't he failed/been beaten at everything he ever tried except the Vanishing Cabinet?

I thought by Book Six that Draco had become a bit of a joke. Sort of a progession of Harry's from silly childhood rivals to real enemies.
