Senator Edward M Kennedy defies party lines by backing a Medicare prescription drug measure expanding private insurer roles. He calls it a major breakthrough, while Democrats fear it falls short and Republicans worry it could yield the largest government benefit program in years. Senate colleagues debate the proposal as it moves forward.
