bamf here:

While the other two make good arguments, I guess the
one thing that always stood out to me about Umbridge
was her desire for power.  IMHO, she did things in
part as loyalty to Fudge, but also because she knew
Fudge would notice and reward her.  After all, she
went from teacher to headmistress once DD was removed.
I would probably have sorted her into Slytherian
because she does seem ambitious, with a
do-anything-to-get-it sort of attitude.  Add to the
fact that while she's not predjudice against Muggle
born, she had a thing against "non-humans".
