How does Brown not running clear the way for someone like Biden? Brown's base is far closer to Sanders than Biden.

They have the same "rust belt electability" appeal. 

Biden's rust belt appeal (and his appeal in general) is far overstated. He certainly had that Rust Belt electability appeal at some point though post-2016, Biden more often than not has been uber tone deaf.

This was probably the realistic decision. I do hope he will endorse Sanders and call on progressive and labour elements in the Democratic Party to rally behind Bernie as the only realistic option.

So, now we have people who have only held statewide office in deep blue states. Trump's reelection chances just went up.

Steve Bullock has yet to rule out a run.

I'm a bit surprised you don't like Brown. Or are you worried about his Senate seat?
