I am not sure about that too. Besides, even if she is, she is a 
rather crazy child. Which bring us back to the same question: why?

I really don't see why nastiness and grovelling should be mutually 
exclusive.  She is a fanatic, and that being the case she is liable 
to worshiping LV complete with grovelling at his feet, kissing the 
hem of his robe and so on. Personally, I am much more puzzled by 
Lucius. He certainly NOT a fanatic, his ambition probably rivals 
that of LV and his social standing is (or at the very least was) 
infinitely superior. So why on earth would he pledge his loyalty to 
a dangerous power-hungry half-blood, who expects him to grovel and 
call him "Master"?! There is nothing to be gained from such an 
arrangement for Lucius and everything to loose.
