The text leads me to the brink of believing Saruman's persuasive powers are "magical". Much stronger than anything normal. I find their descriptions to be "bewitching". Now "posession" is certainly a Peter Jackson twist, and I must agree with your point of the book not supporting an actual exorcism, as done in the movie! BUT....I still get a "have your cake and eat it too" feeling with the descriptions of Saruman's vocal powers, and the denial of magic or hypnosis.
