The day has arrived in the Democratic party when Sherrod Brown is a kind of moderate.
The impeccably progressive Ohio senator who has occupied a spot on the left flank of the Democratic caucus for a very long time is declining to sign up for the fashionable radical causes of the hour.
Brown has not endorsed the Bernie Sanders Medicare-for-all plan that contemplates the end of private insurance in America, nor for the outlandishly expensive and eminently mockable Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Green New Deal.
The question is whether the Democratic party is leaving behind Browns style of politics. The Lefts disdain for working-class whites has, if anything, grown over the first two years of the Trump presidency. And as Ron Brownstein pointed out in a recent analysis for CNN, noncollege whites are becoming a less important part of the Democratic party, while the influence of college-educated and African-American women grows.
Like Bernie Sanders, Brown will have the disadvantage of being a white male more interested in class than racial politics, at a time when the most vocal part of the partys base is obsessed with intersectionality.
Part of Browns calculation has to be that he can leave the crowded left-most lane in the primary to others. And, so, yes, it has come to this: In the inflamed, #resistance-driven contemporary Democratic party, Sherrod Brown is a voice of relative moderation.

Wrong! Sherrod Brown is a first class idiot.
And he's a boob, too.
Referring to Brown as an idiot is a insult to idiots Worldwide.
By definition, a leftist is an idiot for believing in a system that always fails and is the home for such evils as racism, totalitarianism, infanticide, bigotry...just to name a few.
Well...see...Sherrod Brown is a first class idiot. And, a boot licker to the lefturds like Nazi Pelousy and Schmuckey Schumer.
Hes an idiot, Jim.
You’d think by now Rich Lowry could recognize an idiot when he sees one, after decades of mirror practice...
The Dirt Bag will seize the middle ground while everyone knows he’s a true believer.
Dems reach left then after the primary veer center. Most high roller donors slough off the Leftist campaign rhetoric because they know the candidate will come back to reason. They will be fooled by this guy for sure.
Big medicine has a lot of influence on OH pols. Sherrod Brown is real, real silent on things like nursing home profits, big pharma and medicine profits and the like. He's also completely lost his voice on one thing....opposing globalist war mongering. That keeps him elected in OH, which would be heavily conservative if not for greater Cleveland. Summary...he's not to be trusted, by anyone.
Never Trumper blathers on
But does he still beat his ex-wife?
Brown is not an idiot - he has managed to get reelected without doing anything for the State of Ohio. He is lazier than Postman Jr. But, Brown has the Ohio GOP so scared, they have not run a strong candidate against him.
