Here it is again...maybe I didn't grab all of it:

What you are saying is fair and like you my criticism isn't reserved for just one person. I felt there were others that could have stepped up more.
My fear of red state Democrats, especially those that shy away from Party leadership, that they will just end up being another Manchin and we don't need that BS anymore. Not with so much on the line.

I'm all in on "A Democrat is better than no Democrat" so if Brown is that person that so be it and I hope he wins.
