I have always disliked ambitious and calculating people, male or female alike, intensely. She did what she did when her husband was in charge, because her goals were others than a happy marriage. I agree with you, she gives the idea that she would sell her mother, if she had to to achieve her aim.
The image she has in Europe, I believe, is that of a calculating , intelligent and extremely ambitious woman. I think even though at first her first tears convinced people she also had a "human" side...her second public tears gave her away! There was a commenter on Leno the other day who mentioned: "Ok, so she has been trying to convince us that she had more testosterone than any of her opponents and suddenly she is crying her eyes out." I think her adviser did her no good! I have no doubt that she cried crocodile tears.
