That said, while Ron/Hermione was a dreadful pairing, I don't think Harry/Hermione would have been much better. I was rather fond of Viktor Krum for Hermione, myself.
I cannot agree more. I am sick and tired of people trying to claim "Dumbledore is gay" as if I should somehow care what she thinks outside the book. And I'm positive she only said that to be politically correct, as she was a little too "early" finishing the book and lost the opportunity to have a token mention.
