So essentially, the creation of life could prevent Padme's "death" by resurrecting her, and his attachment to her did him in. Does that explain your question Mark?

Except that we now know it couldn't (creation of life preventing death) and that Palpatine was full of shit. Anakin is probably the only one that would continue to follow someone that in one breath said "I know the secret to eternal life" and in the next said "Together, we'll learn the secret to eternal life". WTF?!
Jedi interbreeding? Hmm, I guess that's a reasonable theory. That Aayla sure is a hotty anyway.
