See I don't know. Just the words used in Nazgul's quote, "shadow" and "ghost" would, in my mind, create the picture of a lesser version of the original, that Melkor was true evil and Sauron, while evil enough to be going on with, was merely a pretender, rather than a second coming. Melkors tribute band, if you will!!

Or even Melkor's adoring little fan.

Even though Sauron didn't succeed in his first attempt to control Middle Earth, he sure came close to. The majority of his work was done when he was a spirit, he actually survived after he was killed (pretty amazing). A cool thing about Sauron was that he learned from his mistake and for 3000 years he slowly wore down the might of the Numenoreans and the elves. Now I don't know if he did this because it's all he could do, since he was a spirit, but I thought it was pretty cool the way that he learned from his mistake.
