Exactly.
But I have a theory about that blood thing.
First, being the liberal pro-peace'n'love person that I am, I 
consider magic comes as a gift. I see wizards and muggles as human 
being at first.
Like seers, lots seers have their child as seers, and I think the 
magic is more "hereditary" than the Seer one.
There's muggle seers, and wizards seers.
The proof is muggle-born wizards. If muggles were an another 'race', 
there wouldnt have muggle-born wizards, since this is a gift.
I think the magical thing comes like a powerful energy, so powerful 
that pure-blood wizards are practically all having.
And since there's squib/muggles (or squid? English is not my first 
language, and I'm used to the french HP books. So please excuse me if 
I do name errors. :P ) in wizards families... This mean this gift or 
energy isnt into them. 

Ah well.

It's my opinion, but JKR surely know...
