There's even someone on here who has posited the same idea.

It might be a massive strategic blunder to not go with Shapiro on the ticket. PA will go a long way to settling the November election.

It might, though I am sure if they had then exactly the same voices would be saying it’s a massive strategic blunder not to respect the Midwest.

Hes not a nazi. He's not advocating the purification of the 'american race' by genocidal means. He's orange though, and he likes grabbing girls.

There is no evidence that VP’s carry their state.


And it isn’t that Shapiro is going to sit at home and sulk - he’ll be out stumping doe Harris in his state. If you believe that he can influence his own state voters so much shouldn’t he spend most of his time there?

There is no evidence that VP’s carry their state.

Then why is such a big deal made of it by pollsters and commentators?
