She's probably not very observant (or hates politicians rather a lot). While the first five episodes of Season 2 don't necessarily have to make you love Nathan, they certainly humanize him to a massive degree.
I think if somone is resolved to hate a character, there is probably not much a show can do, but yes, if she missed the human aspects during those episodes (and actually the preceeding season, too)...
One of these days I'm going to collect the oddest responses I got for stories. One of my favourites in terms of bizarreness is from a passionate Lindsey fan who used to review each and every one of my AtS stories (Lindsey is actually just in one of them, and I wrote quite a lot) with a remark about Mr. McDonald or a demand for his presence, crowning this with a review of a vignette about Holtz and his actions in "Benediction" (i.e the episode where he makes Justine kill him) which said that Angel and Darla totally deserved Holtz' revenge because, wait for it, they were so mean to Lindsey. Not because of what they did to Holtz, and never mind that Holtz' revenge damaged Connor to a terrible degree: being mean to Lindsey was really the worst crime ever.
(In terms of Heroes reviews, my favourite bizarre one is the one for "The Most Lies" which says that Peter/Simone was the ideal romance and how perfect they were for each other. Leaving aside that take on the relationship as presented on the show, I'm still at a loss to understand how one could get this impression from my story, with its not so joking subtitle "men suck".)
