A Fitting Tribute

Sen. Kennedy's shadow remains a huge force in the debate. His capacity to achieve compromise in the national good should be remembered as we go back to work on this task. We must roll up our sleeves, redouble our efforts, leave our fixed ideologies at the door and get health reform done. It is in the national interest and a fitting tribute.
