A recent news report from CQPolitics says former Senator Ted Kennedy urged President Barack Obama to make health care a top-tier priority of the new administration.

Now that Senator Kennedy’s voice has been silenced, who will take up the mantra of reform?

The Big 3 News Round Table Panelists tackled this topic and had some interesting opinions to share.

“Health care was Kennedy’s baby,” Jennie said. “I see this (Kennedy’s death) probably stalling this a little bit.”

The question is what chance does health care reform stand of passing now?

“I still don’t see very many Republicans changing sides on this one,” Justin observed. “They are ready to dig in and use the loss of this against Obama if they can.”
