:D I was pretty sure he was still going off to Orochimaru--that the "I'll do this my own way" was, instead, referencing his brother. (He won't kill his closest friend for the power just because Itachi said that was what's necessary--he'll make Orochimaru give him a new way to do it.) But, yes. Jiraiya is on crack. He and Naruto might be similar, Sakura might possibly resemble Tsunade very for into the future with a lot of work, but Sasuke and Orochimaru are totally different types.
I don't even think that what Orochimaru wants is power. I think he wants power just because it will help bring him knowledge, his ultimate goal. And, hey, Sasuke really just wants to kill his brother and possibly, if he's still alive, rebuild his clan.
The comparison thing gets to me, too. So lame. :D
(No time jump! Even if that's clearly what he is trying to set up. Nooo...!)
