I think Molly's weak point would be that she'd let her anxiety over
her children's (and Harry's) safety blind her to reality.  In other
words, she'd be duck soup if Voldemort set up a particularly crafty
masquerade (not the word I want to use but I'm blanking right now) to
fool her.  Had she seen a vision of Percy or Bill or Charley being
tortured in the MoM she'd have broken the sound barrier getting there
to rescue them.

Molly's strident efforts to keep the kids ignorant of what was going
on (Harry in POA, all the kids in OOTP) shows that she has a very
limited understanding of what the Order is all about and what demands
it might make on its members.
