As everyone has already mentioned, there are no characters in Death Note that could be considered morally good, but the main characters have huge fanbases even though they're all varying degrees of terrible. I think fans who are looking at their personalities are probably choosing favorites based on how interesting/smart they are, instead of whether or not they agree with their philosophies. There are also fans who choose based on how pretty the character is. Some people feel uncomfortable liking or idolizing a morally reprehensible character, so they alter their interpretation to fit their own values.

The complaints I usually see about Misa are that she's annoying, selfish/callous and stupid. She stands out as a louder and more energetic character in a series that's pretty stoic and quiet, but she's really not much worse than the typical female anime lead. Questionable morality is nothing new in the series (it's pretty much the point,) maybe it's an issue here because there was no attention called to it (not in the obvious way that was done for the other characters.) As for her stupidity, she is a somewhat capable person in a show full of geniuses, and actually not too bad a strategist, she just acts childish and ditsy because that's sometimes considered charming. So yeah, there are some reasons to not care about her or find her annoying, but I can't understand why people take such issue with her while defending any of the other main character.
