...third track, "Anakin's Theme," is one of the finest examples of Williams' genius in film music. Anakin Skywalker, of course, will become the Darth Vader of the original films (if that's a spoiler for you, then you probably don't care anyway). Having to work backward from the other three Star Wars soundtracks, Williams has embedded the familiar notes of "Darth Vader's Theme" (also known as the "Imperial March") within the slow, thoughtful piece. One can easily imagine the notes solidifying more and more over the next two films and into the familiar, thundering music of Darth...

...true liberal has its counterpart in the true conservative. These fellows have not (unfortunately) gone so quietly into that good night. From Ralph Reed to Pat Buchanan, they're still out practicing their bigoted and backward politics. They still have followers and they still run for office every so often. But less and less are they explicitly shaping the Republican Party's political agenda. When (and if) Strom Thurmond dies, so too will die the old school Republican party.
