I agree, Tonks (like Sirius mind you) was blasted off the family wall
(also 
like her mother) because she did not show the Black nature of mudblood
hating 
and cruelty, other such harsh things that were shown to be the strengths
of the 
Black family. Tonks would not have been in Slytherin either unless she
was 
evil because she was part muggle. 

That leads to Tom RIddle being part muggle but he was evil enough for
that 
not to matter, he also hid his lineage.

I too find it highly unlikely that Tonks was in Slytherin because of her
mixed lineage, unless she is evil like Voldie (which I rather doubt). I
could see her in any of the remaining houses (Auror and Order Member
require smarts, bravery and loyalty). However, if I were to choose one,
I would pick Gryffindor, simply because of the off-hand remark Tonks
makes to Harry about her Head of House disapproving of her misbehavior.
It instantly brings to mind McG.

 

Perhaps a bit of a tangent, but did anyone else notice how 'together'
Tonks was when there was an actual mission - taking the kids to Kings
Cross and on the Knight Bus? She's a klutz, probably due to changing
physical form, but she's not a bumbler.
