Could her power be to resist other peoples powers?
She managed to resist Matt's power the second time he put a thought in her head because he told her to tell him who that woman was but she didn't.
There is a few flaws such as why hasn't Peter absorbed this ability yet and can resist powers being used on him. Maybe his mum resisted his power copying hers or something?

i think she knew and learnt how to stop people reading her mind as Maury used to do it in the past, explains why she says 'Matt is like his father'

I would rather think, that is because Matt isn't completly used in his ability. Remmber, it is very new for him to have it and how long Peter take to control new abilities he get.

I think i said this elsewhere but...
when she was resisting Matt, there was a shot of her trying to do something with her hand, but it was restrained. After last weeks episode, people were speculating about her ability being a kind of persuation, but needing physical contact. I am leaning towards her trying to use her power - which would be similar enough to matt's that it would explain her ability to withstand him so long - but was unable to because she was restrained.

I didn't think she was able to resist Matt. At the very end, he has the photo with the name Victoria Pratt over the woman, which means he got the information from her.

The nose bleed shows her suceeding at resisting him for a short time though.

I don't think her ability to withstand Matt's telepathy has anything to do with her powers. If you remember, Noah was equally able to do so simply by thinking in Japanese. That being said, Matt's powers have grown since then and the first future ep showed us that Matt is capable of forcefully extracting information from people. Nonetheless, the incidence of Noah seems to indicate that anyone can resist Matt's powers if they are sufficiently strong of mind.

She told him who it was in the end because he has a picture with the womans name on. How else would he know her name if she didnt tell him?

We're not saying that Matt didn't win out (because he did), but Angela put up one h*ll of a fight.

This was definately not a power of hers.
As of a interview she already gave months ago, Christine Rose mentioned that she is very experienced when it comes to the powers and so she can withstand partially more than a normal person can in some cases. That means that it took Matt longer to get through her than through others because she is a "hard cookie" that's all.

Well so that's twice now that there's been a 'close-up' of her hands.

Oh ok. I wonder what her power is then. I hope it isn't persuasion because that would be rubbish tbh. Maybe on 'four months ago' it was just like the mother-daughter relationship that convinced nathans wife.

Eden in Series 1 had thwe power of persuasion and it certainly wasn't rubbish as you so quaintly say...

Yeah, i meant having another persuader would be rubbish. Especailly one who had to touch them to actually do it. Eden's power was good, i agree for that too. I expected the 12 elders to have like amazing powers.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Maybe Angela lives through this and we see her next Season.
Or maybe in the next two episodes.

This maybe a hint as to what Mrs. Petrelli's power is;
Clairsentience, Chandra Shuresh wrote a whole chapter about this ability. The bases of the ability basically allows you to see the history of an object that you come in contact with, or from what I'm thinking a person. Which would explain all the up close shots of Angela's hands lately. The heroeswiki says that Bridget Bailey is the only KNOWN person with the ability. Which would make sense since Angela's power hasn't been revealed. Or either she has and altered form of the ability.

allows to see the history of the object...
hmm...does it also allow to show others the history?
