For those who may object to Huckabee's comments, it is essential to point out that Huckabee is very certainly not the first to "politicize" Kennedy's death. In fact, his comments come in response to Democrats that have already made a Senator's passing an political issue. As ABC News reports, "Democrats are hoping that the memory of Sen. Ted Kennedy will revive the Democratic Party's flagging push for health care reform... 'Ted Kennedy's dream of quality health care for all Americans will be made real this year because of his leadership and his inspiration,' said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in a statement. Pelosi's sentiment was echoed by former vice president Al Gore who served with Kennedy in the Senate."
