Sanders, independent from vermont. jeff merkley, freshman from oregon is also up there. theyre all very young in the senate and none have stepped forward to take over that position that kennedy left. >> here is the frustration, i believe, of union membership and leadership in this country. is it the democratic leadership is void of a voice? its like theyre afraid to step up and just get after it the way ted kennedy did. when every election cycle we have seen victories in ohio, in pennsylvania, i...
