Is Locke's Dad the Original "Sawyer"?

The idea that Locke's Dad (a.k.a. Anthony Cooper) could be the "Sawyer" that conned the parents of the Sawyer we know has been kicked around for a while, but until "The Man From Tallahassee", we never had any proof that Locke's father was a con man that preyed on rich women.

Now that we've seen him in action, it seems almost a certainty that he is indeed the con artist that Sawyer has been searching for all these years. As luck would have it, Anthony Cooper is on the island right now, and there are at least two other island residents who would like nothing more than to help him meet his ultimate fate.

The big question is how did Anthony Cooper get on the island in the first place, but that's a question for another topic.

So what are your thoughts? Is Anthony Cooper the original Sawyer? Are there any other possibilities? Post your thoughts and comments below....
