Well said. We can mourn his passing, and feel for the family, and still oppose this man politically, and oppose the use of his political legacy to try to ram through Obamacare.

We conservatives are that nuanced, that we can differentiate between the passing of Ted Kennedy the man, and mourn his passing, while still opposing his politics, and the political situation with Obamacare.

I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop. I expect that Ted’s passing will be worked into the Obamacare debate. I wonder just how Democrats will do this. Will there be emotional appeals about this bill being Ted Kennedy’s legacy, or something along those lines?

Do we hear Senator Tom Harkin warming up with operatic scales for a revised version of "Will you do it for Paul?!"

Elton John rewrote his homage to Marilyn Monroe in 1997 for Princess Diana.

There will be calls to pass the Kennedy Bill by acclamation.

Yes Libs will definately work Kennedy’s passing into the argument.

Remember: Never let a good crisis (or death) go to waste, or something like that Rahm Emmanuel truism.
