Chelene had a problem with knowing the difference between control and leadership. She worked to advance her own personal preferences and causes no matter what SOS members opinions were in regards to those causes. And if you tangled with her about them or for what ever reason you didn't agree with her, you were OUT!!! She refused to listen to others who gave advice (I know that from first hand experience) and basically felt it was her way or the highway.
On a positive note, Chelene put in a great deal of time into SOS and she is a bright woman. But she exploited the position she was given (she wasn't voted in) and tried to used it as a ladder to climb to what she thought would be a successful political career. She had dreams of grandeur that never developed but even today she continues to try to grab the string on the upward floating balloon she sees as being a future political career that is just out of her grasp, as her dreams evade her.
She felt that while here at SOS everything was all her doing and everyone else was expendable except her few close followers. No she was not a good leader unless you were a complete follower and if you went beyond being a follower, you were out!!
I myself didn't care so much what she did because I just ignored all her other causes (Ron Paul was a huge one) and continued to protest illegal immigration. But many felt betrayed by having someone in a leadership roll pushing stuff that wasn't where they themselves stood. She fractured SOS then abandoned what was left.
