Vice President Kamala Harris and her newly-announced running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz held their first joint rally in Philadelphia before going on a tour of battleground states this week.
Walz is a low risk, medium reward pick. Shapiro is reverse. Can’t win the Presidency without Pennsylvania. I think the jabber that the far left came up with regarding Shapiro is shameful and embarrassing, but the choice is made and it’s time to move forward.
I don’t think Shapiro guarantees PA. His approval is good, but it’s not crazy high like Beshear. And his vulnerabilities make him too risky of a pick, you don’t want to halt the positive momentum and alienate the young voters you have finally gotten energised.
Not that it matters, but the political tactics in Pennsylvania are a bit different. Shapiro’s popularity in rural communities would be quite beneficial.
I think you’ll be surprised by the number of surprise states going blue for this election. A lot has happened since 2020 on Trump’s side, and none of it has been good.

Wouldn’t the opposite of a low risk, medium reward pick a high risk, medium reward pick?
Shapiro was high risk and high reward. Now that the decision has been made, I hope you can cheer for the Philly ward ladies to deliver Pennsylvania.

Maybe true. Hopefully true. Ground game is everything, though.
