Yeah...I think it might have been in the novelization of ESB (I am too lazy to walk across the room and pick it up) that Leia seriously considered letting Chewie kill Lando after Han was put in carbonite. Pretty much because Anger and Revenge.

She also had to deal with the loss of her entire planet and the only family she ever knew (before Luke but they didn't grow up together and only really figured out being siblings much later I think). Not to mention you know, interrogation/torture by Darth Vader. Hell, even all the political BS that came with the New Republic after the Emperor's death. I bet it felt tempting more than once to just make people do what was good for them.

Maybe she wasn't directly tempted by a Sith (like Vader or Palpatine) but I'm quite certain she was tempted by the Dark Side.

I hate the meme that goes around putting down Luke and company in order to elevate Leia too (like an above anon mentions). I think Leia is cool enough in her own right that that isn't necessary.

Yup. In my mind, if Leia went dark, she wouldn't join the Sith (or the Empire or the First ORder). She'd be the sort of well intentioned extremist who started crossing her own boundaries to fight for the things she believed to be right. Eventually I could see her being dark enough that she thought that her ruling the galaxy could fix all the problems. So dark, but not ever joining the Empire.

Now I want someone (who's a better writer than me) to write that.

I want people who are better than me at things to do all the things for me too. :(

Dude, that was a plot point worry in Bloodline. When the Senate finds out she was actually biologically Vader's daughter? They pretty much go "NOPE. You can't be First Senator now. We don't need a new Vader/Palpatine, kthxbai."
