January's Ted Kennedy negative post
'Our Basic Values'
"Sen. Edward Kennedy, the leading liberal voice in Congress, said on Wednesday that Democrats 'must do a better job' of promoting what he called their basic, unifying values if they are to rebound from their defeat in the November elections," Reuters reports from Washington:
"Unlike the Republican Party, we believe our values unite us as Americans, instead of dividing us," the Massachusetts Democrat said in a speech prepared for delivery at the National Press Club.
"Today, I propose a progressive vision for America, a vision that Democrats must fight for in the months and years ahead--a vision rooted in our basic values of opportunity, fairness, tolerance and respect for each other."
Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment.
