To put it in Godfather terms, when Carlo died, the Family needed a Michael Corleone. In Paul, they instead got a Barzini, and in John Gotti, a Frank Pentangelli or Joey Zasa.
Only a Tom Hagen would pull of that kind of analogy:)
Does that mean that Peter Gotti is Fredo?
(I would probably compare John Gotti with Sonny though)
