Well, I am not happy with Voldie the way he is as a character, and I 
think that Harry could be made to win in a  same way, even if Voldie 
will be a stronger villain .

I am one of those who thinks that L word will play a major part in 
Harry's victory, so I don't see how it matters whether Voldie is 
cartoonish  or not.

I suppose come to think of it JKR does portray some evil fairly 
convincingly - some DE are very scary, same with TR. I just wish 
Voldemort could be the same way.
