Tim Ryan needs to ask himself this question.

[nkpolitics1212]

What would Sherrod Brown do or not do?

Sherrod Brown would not avoid Joe Biden on the campaign trail.
Sherrod Brown’s US Senate Elections
2006- GWBush’s 2nd Midterm- Bush was unpopular.
2012- Obama’s 2nd Presidential term.
2018- Trump’s 1st Midterm.
2024- Biden’s 2nd Presidential term- Brown will not distance himself from any Democratic Presidential Nominee, Popular or Unpopular.

5. Which Democratic OH US Senator is more progressive?

Sherrod Brown or John Glenn or Howard Metzenbaum?

Glenn and Metzenbaum were elected in the 1970’s and retired in the 1990’s.

6. There have been some significant voting demographic changes since 1970 & 2020

I do not have info on the 1980s
Ohio voters demographic, yet. I need to research a bit more. I'll be back when I got more info.

Brown has built a statewide coalition by hard work, he has a solid history with older white working men, because of his trade policies.

snip-"But Brown had named recognition, substantial financial backing from the party, and a ground game. Despite being a Democrat in a state Trump won in 2016 by 8 percentage points, Brown has maintained his popularity with the "secret sauce" for Democrats, Jennifer Duffy, with The Cook Political Report, told The Enquirer in May."

IMO, Ryan & the state & national party need to do a Stacey Abrams style push for voters & getting 'Souls to the Polls'.
