  That's what I was thinking as well.  Isn't it true that Harry only partially resists Moody's imperio curse? I don't have my GoF book with me so I may be wrong, but I seem to remember that Harry didn't completely throw off "Moody's" curse, but instead only succeeded in banging up his shins as he half obeyed and half resisted.  This detail may have been reported to Voldemort who then believed that he, with his superior power, would have no trouble getting Harry to completely obey under the curse.
