Think about Lenore Dove. She knows that the way things are is unfair, but she sees a better future. She truly believes that rebellion is the way to stop the sun from rising, she has well-thought opinions about it, arguments to support her actions, she is the heart. But she's quiet, shy, lonely. It might not seem like it cause we know that she got arrested for openly rebelling but Haymitch mentions that she doesnt perform for crowds because of stage fright ("her throat closes up"), she doesnt have many friends at school and is described as being smart but not making a big deal about it.

Think about Maysilee. She know's that the way things are is unfair, and she's angry about it. She's, perhaps, so blinded by rage that she doesnt see a world in which things change, just an eternal fight. But that doesnt mean that she isnt willing to fight it, she's loud and outspoken but she's not speaking the right words or choosing her battles. She starts doing so when she gets reaped but by then its to late for anyone other than future corpses to hear her remind them who the enemy is. Before that, her anger just shows up by being mean to whoever happens to be there.

Lenore Dove knew all the right words to say, powerful words with purpose and a target ;but she wasn't loud enough. Maysilee was loud, everyone could hear her anger; but it was too overwhelming to give it a purpose.

They didn't get along, but if they had, before Maysilee got reaped, I truly believe she would have become the Mockingjay. Plutarch would've chosen her instead of Haymitch (or maybe both of them).
