Just saw Sen. Sherrod Brown on Morning Joe...(sigh)...

how I wish he'd run, but I think that idea has moved on (I don't think he wanted to do it)...too bad...a missed opportunity, IMO. But he is such a good guy, his wife is strong and has her own career as a writer, and he represents the working man and woman so ably and with so much dignity...I'm glad MJ had him on...a voice for sanity and goodness in politics...

If I were to vote in a presidential

She would have won all the midwest states

Sherrod contradicted Joe on his fairy tale that no Democrats spoke out about Clinton. Joe forgets his sorry part in the vindictive mess. His wife divorced him shortly after. He resigned from Congress. Now he is all pious about being a twice divorced back sliding Souther Baptist.

Can you see Connie Schultz as First Lady? Of course Teacher Biden is fine,too.

That could have united both wings of the party, and he has roots in the Midwest. He was my top choice, but sadly did not run.

I think he would make a great VP if Warren won though. He would help her if he was on the ticket.

Would make it a point to come over and talk to me and my little daughter. Unpretentious - a true public servant the framers would have loved!

His wife Connie is brilliant and funny as hell, too!!

But it's a recently won senate seat we can't afford to jeopardize in a state that's not currently trending our way.
