I cannot agree with this statement more. Voldemort is a walking ad 
for the Evil Overlord list (do a search for it if you don't know what 
it is). I think that I have such a strong reaction to the other 
supposedly less evil characters because they are evil in a realistic 
way. they are evil that I have encountered and battled in my own 
life, just like all of us have. Voldemort is a caricature of evil, 
and evil in a way that doesn't exist in RL
