I live in PA and I like Shapiro but I think he's a little too much of a rising star to be someone Kamala can fully trust. I also really don't want to deal with the anti-semitism on the far left and far right and the fact that the media will almost certainly make hay out of the divisions in the party over Israel.

Tim Walz at least on paper seems perfect in terms of a governing partner - more low key, has connections in Congress and the executive experience she's said to be looking for. He seems like he has the most potential to be Kamala's own Joe Biden, which is more valuable in the long run unless she absolutely thinks she needs Shapiro to win Pennsylvania.
