And what of himself would Voldy see in Harry? Some Muggle blood.
Not exactly mindblowing, is it? Unless, of course, DD is referring to 
some other connection between the two that is yet to be revealed. 
Something the Paranoid League of Conspiracy Theorists have been 
wondering about. That  could  be a whole new cauldron of flobberworms.


Me:

I don't know if I consider myself belonging to the Paranoid League of 
Conspiracy Theorists (unless I can find evidence/clues in canon to 
pursue such a path :-) But let me just reply to your question of 
whether there is a bigger connection between Voldemort and Harry than 
just the Muggle blood. I think Rowling is carefully hinting there 
are. Remember Tom Riddle's little speech at the end of CoS: "There 
are strange likenesses between us, Harry...". By that he seems to 
mean their physical appearance/looks, their background (orphans 
etc.), and their abilities (parseltongue). I have a hunch Rowling has 
more "strange likenesses" up her sleeve :-)
