I have only one quarrel with this theory. How exactly
would she join the DEs? We only know of one female DE,
and I believe this is a reflection of Voldy's view on
women: they aren't competent enough to be an asset to
his hostile take-over bid.

I can see it now . . . Umbridge finds the secret DE
meeting, and taps someone on the shoulder.

"Excuse me, I'm looking for the Dark Lord."

Goyle looks stupidly around at her, she's wearing her
pink cardigan and black velvet bow again. He points
toward LV in the center of the group. She strides up
to him and simpers, "Hi, can I join you?"

LV already has a poor wizard working for him,
Wormtail, who has proven to be a liability. I can't
see him taking on another incompetent one, much less a
failed Hogwarts headmistress.

Other than that, I'm gleefully awaiting whatever JKR
is going to give Umbridge as her due.

Cheers,
JuHu
