Hi Kia,

I think you make some interesting points but ultimately Hermione has 
something that Umbridge lacks completely - compassion.  We see 
Hermione quite clearly going into bat for Elf-rights.  Umbridge is 
quite clearly anti this position. For this reason, I don't think 
they are in reality anything alike.  They might share a liking for 
rules and order but Hermione will break those rules to serve 
others.  When Umbridge breaks them she serves herself.

Unless something drastic happens to Hermione to poison her heart and 
mind, I don't think she's in any danger of turning into an Umbridge.

Just my opinion. :)
