well of course he is. if you read the books, unlike many, you find that on the night Harry gets his scar, Voldemort was setting out to kill someone like himself. He had the choice of Neville Longbottom, The Pure-Blood, or Harry Potter, The Half-Blood. He chose Harry, as he was a Half-Blood, much like himself. Just something that connects Harry and Voldemort even more. God I love being a nerd.
