No sign is evil. That's just the typical excuse to hate something: call it evil. Ironic, isn't it?
I would guess it's a matter of not getting on a Scorpio's bad side, as the "lash" as you so may call it can be quite...passionate as the sign tends to be. It's hard to get a Scorpio to forgive. We are also quite protective over the stuff and people we love. And we lash our really strong when that is under threat. I guess people don't like our passionate strikes when provoked.
But if you get on our good side we're softer than bread and cotton. Actually, Scorpios are not only compared to Scorpions, but also to Eagles, and Phoenixes.
About dominance and drive for power...I'm a Scorpio, and I feel no such thing.
EDIT:
Let me add, however, that Astrology as a whole is very far from being proven to be trustworthy. Consider it just "fun" stuff. What is actually proven, is that every human being on the planet is unique and shares it's own personality (or copies another's).
I was reading a book called archyotypes of the Zodiac is stated that Scorpios can evolve. You start as a Scorpion, then a snake, the final transformation is the pheonix or eagle. It also says the eagle is the only creature who can stare down sun. Astrology for me is just for fun and it's interesting.
