Sherrod Brown is the best bet

[DemocratSinceBirth]

-The presidency is more important than a Senate seat.

-Since bills originate in the House the GOPU can stymie us as long as we don't control it

-He has blue collar cred

-OH is on a knife's edge. It wouldn't take much to put it firmly in the Democratic column. This isn't a Hail Mary pass like thinking Lloyd Bentsen or John Edwards could turn their state blue especially when the latter would have never won re-election in his homestate.

[John Poet]

1. I do like him.

If he could make the difference in Ohio, well.... it would spell the end for Trump.

The Democrats can win the presidential election without Ohio now, but the Republicans really cannot.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

2. I have nothing against Villsack or Kaine but Brown makes the most sense.

[BlueStater]

3. If Democrats don't recapture the senate, Hillary won't be able to get a damn thing done anyway.

The petty children masquerading as Republican senators will assure of this.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

5. Bills originate in the House. The GOPU can stymie us forever.

[Hortensis]

22. Whatever, control of the Senate is still too

important. Just don't see it. In fact, my guess is Brown was never a serious consideration because we can't lose his Senate seat.

[raven mad]

23. BlueStater, I'm stealing your line -

"petty children posing as Republicans" is perfect.

[chillfactor]

4. no for this election....

we need to hold onto every Senate seat that we have.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

7. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

[longship]

6. Please, not a sitting Senator, especially not one from a swing state.

Nor one where the governor is a Republican. Do you hear me Warren for VEEP cheerleaders? A state which can elect a GOP governor, is not a state that one wants to remove a sitting Democratic senator.

No to Warren, and hell no to Brown for VEEP.

We need these people in the senate.

[kevink077]

8. No....

We can NOT afford to lose this Senate seat.

[OnDoutside]

9. I agree, it's too important a seat.

[Cirque du So-What]

10. Not to mention

that repug guv Kay-sack would get to name his replacement

[BzaDem]

11. Is Senator Brown being VP more important than the Supreme Court?

Because it takes 50 senators to confirm a Supreme Court nominee. Not 49.

[DemonGoddess]

12. While I really like Sherrod Brown

we cannot afford to lose ANY sitting senators.

[TheBlackAdder]

13. Ew. Something about that guy reeks used car salesman.

.


And I'm sure my voice will get silenced in the next few minutes as being anti-this or that.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

14. Why. He strikes me as everyman, well everyman with an Ivy league degree.

[TheBlackAdder]

15. While I like hearing the guy speak, there's just something about him that strikes me as odd.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. Who do you like?

My raison d'etre is for us to win this election.

[TheBlackAdder]

17. Booker or Warren, Perez (Castro is bad, I mean really bad)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

18. Booker or Warren present the same challenge that bothers others here.

A GOP governor appoints their replacement. However in Warren's case there is a special election to replace her in 90 days.

I like Tom Perez , a lot, and would be happy with him. I know he has administrative ability but does he have political ability? Politics is a blood sport.

[phleshdef]

21. Booker? And you say Brown is like a used car salesman?

I'm beginning to think you never bought a used car. If any Dem comes across inauthentic and superficial, it's Booker.

[phleshdef]

20. That is the opposite of Senator Brown.

The hell are you talking about?

[DLCWIdem]

19. can't lose the senate. No. we could have both branches.

Plus the senate confirms scotus. Warren might be ok becausr special election but not Brown.
