That's an interesting observation. Her introduction as a main character on the show was that she was the on and off girlfriend of Billy, the bumbling, akward President's Aid (obviously a sympathetic character, meant to be very human and act as a representation of the viewer in the show). Then her character grows when she starts giving advice to His Holy Olmos, about going back to Kobol. She starts flirting with Lee, one of the 5 main characters on the show. Her role is now more important and prominant. The Billy gets wasted, John Woo style. Her and Lee hook up, then get married. She get's pissed cause he's fat (and not His Holy Olmos, fot all men are but chaff in the wind next to Olmos).
I see her more as codependant, but not a maryter.

I remain with the idea that Anders either dies soon or I have not thought of a way in which his character can get re-engaged in the storyline. Maybe they hinted at it with him quitting the jury, but I can't figure it out.
Great show - makes me think . . . lots
