We prove some part of the conjecture that regular Bethe ansatz eigenvectors of the XXZ spin chain at roots of unity are highest weight vectors of the $sl_2$ loop algebra. Here $q$ is related to the XXZ anisotropic coupling $\Delta$ by $\Delta=(q+q^{-1})/2$, and it is given by a root of unity, $q^{2N}=1$, for a positive integer $N$. We show that regular XXZ Bethe states are annihilated by the generators ${\bar x}_k^{+}$'s, for any $N$. We discuss, for some particular cases of N=2, that regular XXZ Bethe states are eigenvectors of the generators of the Cartan subalgebra, ${\bar h}_k$'s. Here the loop algebra $U(L(sl_2))$ is generated by ${\bar x}_k^{\pm}$ and ${\bar h}_k$ for $k \in {\bf Z}$, which are the classical analogues of the Drinfeld generators of the quantum loop algebra $U_q(L(sl_2))$. A representation of $U(L(sl_2))$ is called highest weight if it is generated by a vector $\Omega$ which is annihilated by the generators ${\bar x}_k^{+}$'s and such that $\Omega$ is an eigenvector of the ${\bar h}_k$'s. We also discuss the classical analogue of the Drinfeld polynomial which characterizes the irreducible finite-dimensional highest weight representation of $U(L(sl_2))$.
