Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro (D), who previously served as that state's Attorney General, is reportedly on Kamala Harris's shortlist for her running mate. Shapiro would seem to bring some significant things to the table: executive experience, popularity in a key swing state, and support from unions.
But progressive groups are nevertheless warning Harris away from Shapiro.
One letter signed by nearly 50 progressive leaders pointed to Shapiro’s “shortcomings as a national candidate” and urged the vice president to consider Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) instead.
“With the compressed timeline ahead of us to defeat the Trump-Vance-MAGA threat, we simply cannot afford any setbacks,” the letter said.
A letter from another progressive group, known as “VP Unity,” said Harris’s consideration of Shapiro has “set off alarm bells” among young voters, Muslims, Arab Americans and activists.
Take a look at those categories. "...young voters, Muslims, Arab Americans, and activists."
From this, we can conclude with reasonable certainty that the "young voters" and "activists" are those who either conducted or are in sympathy with those who held "peaceful protests" in favor of wiping out Israel on college campuses across the country. And were we to draw one of Kamala Harris's beloved Venn diagrams of "Muslims" and "Arab Americans," there would likely be an almost complete overlap.
The quiet part they aren't saying out loud? Governor Shapiro is Jewish. And he supports Israel, although he has been critical of Prime Minister Netanyahu.

I thought Casey was too pro-life for the DemonicRats base.
Exactly. They hate Trump enough to ignore any slight.
The Somalis in Minnesota also might swing the state for the same reason.
There is a big economic crash on the horizon, no matter what.
Perhaps the smarter RATS sense that and prefer to wait for 2028.
Can you imagine the convention “No No, we dont want no stinken Jew get him outta here, genocide genocide” Minnesota would be in play too
>> In 2022, 12 states elected female governors. Twelve.
“United States gubernatorial elections were held on November 8, 2022, in 36 states and three territories.”
Neglecting the 3 territories because who cares, that means that 24 (twenty-four) states elected male governors. Twenty-four!
So, twice as many dude governors were elected as were chick governors.
Mathematically, (dude-gov/36) * 100 = 66.6%, or 2/3 male governors elected in 2022.
Sorry to overwhelm with facts and math! I know math is hard for chicks. Take a second or two of deep breathing to recover! Okay, on to my next point...
>> Do you think it was males who elected them?
Yeah, in some cases I do. I, a proud male that identifies as male (pronouns: he/him/normal) would gladly vote Kay Ivey (AB) over whatever douchebag ‘Rat ran against her. And in MI, I would crawl thru broken glass to vote Tudor Dixon, a real woman, over Widmer.
>>,Vance needs to get swapped out for a chick if Trump is going to have any chance at all.
As I have shown, in spite of its arrogant bluster, that statement of yours is full of “I, Woman, Said So!” but totally lacks support. Put crudely (I’m a male after all): you’re full of sh!t like a Christmas turkey.
Liz Warren would be the ideal choice, if they wanted to throw 2024 and focus on 2028.
this is nutty libtard thinking. snap out of it! this is war; we’re not playing the identity politics anymore
isn’t he running for something else this year? I do remember his name but didn’t realize how inept he was
Mitch Landrieu or Corey Booker
The strongest argument for Butt-man is that it would be “historic”.
Lefties love “historic” stuff.
It is their version of manifest destiny—demonization and then annihilation of straight white males.
The first truly Black African American president will hopefully be a Republican.

True. Vance has not done well. He’s become an issue. Not much positive. Best thing would be for him to bow out. Harris Faulkner didn’t have one good thing to say about him….neither has anyone else. No one is impressed.
The left hates Vance.
That is called “life insurance”.
:-)
Kabuki Show. The lie machine trying to make him appear more conservative than he is. She will select him.
Why else would she be announcing her decision in Philly?
One other thought—the mass media and the left are going to skewer any Republican VP nominee these days.
Playing musical chairs fixes nothing.
Harris Faulkner is a globalist.
Why, because he is hitting the l3ft? They need to be smoked every day like the bullies that they are.
“Harris Faulkner is a globalist.”
Thanks—that explains it.
Please what a combination an abusive white rich biotch with a “special” husband to whom the rules and laws do not apply- who had the benefit of a completely FAKE “kidnapping” set up by FBI plants, all proven false as hell. Just like Whitmer.
And how about that Attorney General of hers... do what you dyke, like?
