Where were the Hobbits in the Second Age? Breeding with Entwives lol!!

I always thought that if Saruman was given the proper time and resources he could become a third Dark Lord, perhaps an even greater one than Sauron. Let's see how they are related:

1. They are both Maiar of Aule.
2. They could successfully breed Orcs, Saruman could effectively breed even BIGGER ones!
3. They love going among Men and bewitching them.
4. They both had a Pilantir.
5. They liked making Rings.
6. I have forgotten the other comparisons I have made.

So, if Saruman hadn't made his abode right inbetween the horses of Rohan and the Entwife-spawn hobbits of Eriador

, maybe stuck himself somewhere near Mirkwood, could he have become yet another Dark Lord in the Fourth Age?

BTW, can anyone else think of more comparisons/differences between Sauron and Saruman?
