Betsy Hp:
For example, Hermione has little to no leadership abilities.  Harry 
has her beat on that.  And she's terrible at improvising, which is 
why Harry beat her DADA score, I'd imagine.  And, ironically, I 
think Hermione has a very hard time reading people emotionally.  
Whereas Ron is very good at it, IMO. 

There's a reason Harry is more comfortable around Ron than he is 
around Hermione.  *And* there's a reason that Hermione was left with 
only Hagrid for company when Harry and Ron were angry at her.  Ron 
is much better at figuring out how a person is thinking.  If 
Hermione had listened to him during her SPEW phase, she may have 
gotten further.

Actually, I think that's where JKR is going when she sees Ron and 
Hermione as a couple.  She provides the cold calculation, he 
provides the heart, and together they're unstoppable.  Is the idea 
anyway.  So far Hermione has done such a good job stomping all over 
poor Ron's heart, I'm not sure she deserves him. <g>
