While I agree that Hermione is a bit more emotional than people may think (ie, letting panic overcome senses with Devil's Snare), I feel like she is still one of the most rationale, objective people in the series. JKR uses her a lot to point out when the good guys do questionable things (even though Luna Lovegood is probably her blind spot) and I don't think it's influenced as much by personal stories. If it was, then why did she not try to leave Winky alone? Her cause was for all house elves, not just her friend.
