Kennedy and Chappaquiddick

ABC News has an article up saying, "Chappaquiddick's Indiscretions Forever Tarnished Kennedy".
It goes on to talk about how Sen. Kennedy was "always haunted by the ghost of 1969, despite his accomplishments".

Am I the only one who thinks driving a car into a lake, leaving the scene without providing help or assistance to the passenger in the car, and then waiting 10 hours to report the incident SHOULD 'haunt' you? A woman died and he did nothing to assist her. He was more concerned with himself. That should be part of his legacy. I realize the man finally straightened up after 60 years and yeah for that, but another human being died because of him. And let not forget...he really wasn't held accountable to society for the incident.
