Hillary Clinton's candidacy is all but a done deal and her path to the nomination is very easy.  But, tell me, who else do you support in the Democratic Primary?  If Hillary is your first choice, then who is your second?  If Hillary is not your first choice, then who is?

Sherrod Brown at the moment.

Not a Dem obviously, but Feingold edges Schweitzer for me at the moment. I actually purchased campaign pins for both of them plus my 3rd and 4th favorites Gillibrand and Hickenlooper though obviously none will run Sad

Sherrod Brown is needed in the senate. A strong, unapologetic progressive and popular senator in a purplish state? Hell yeah.

I've always been a Schweitzer fan though I know other progressives don't feel the same as me.

I'd like Sherrod Brown, but yeah, he's needed in the senate, for the reasons that NerdyBohemian stated.

I'd like Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren, but Feingold could be an interesting choice as well.

Other than Brown (I suppose I agree on the issue of keeping him in the Senate), Warren and Feingold are good too, though Warren absolutely won't run and I'd like to see the latter run for Senate. I suppose that essentially leaves Gillibrand.

I'm still a registered Democrat, even though my avatar says different, but I like Kirsten Gillibrand and Brian Schweitzer.  I think Russ Feingold has been out of politics too long.  If that weren't a hindrance, though, I'd like to bring back Tom Daschle, but I know that's wishful thinking.

Al Gore would pretty cool too if we could go back that far. Feingold hasn't been out too long though. He's been working in State, and he's gearing up. Look at the Republican fools like Bush and Romney. He'd be fine.

Elizabeth Warren and Brian Schweitzer are my favorites.
A match-up of both, irrespective of the order, would provide a formidable ticket.

Brian Schweitzer is the Chair of a Montana gold mining company and about a year ago led a  successful shareholder revolt to remove most of the company's directors and replace them with his own people. I think he's in for the long term with that company.

In order for me (though I'm Canadian):
1.Mark Warner
2.Amy Klobuchar
3.Martin O'Malley
4.Elizabeth Warren
5.Kirsten Gillibrand
6.Tim Kaine
7.James Webb
8.Russ Feingold
9.Bernie Sanders

Schweitzer if he overcame is penchant for putting his foot in his mouth, Warren, and as of late (as in last couple hours) Dan Malloy.

Would not support
1.Janet Napolitano (unless she reversed her position on marijuana)
2.Andrew Cuomo

Don't know enough about
1.Maggie Hassan
2.Steve Bullock
Though I doubt either would run.

Not sure about
1.Joe Biden

Martin O'Malley is my first choice, and I'm pretty sure he'll run, so I don't have a second yet.

Biden is my top pick and if he declines, I would support Hillary followed by O'Malley.

Sherrod, Warren, Klobuchar, Gillibrand, Bullock, Kerry and a few others are also my favorites, but I strongly doubt any of them run.

Brown, Warren, and Sanders are all favorites of mine, but we need some progressives in the senate. For president, I'd say Gillibrand.
