So who is Harris going to pick for VP?

I think Shapiro of Penn.
2nd guess Mark Kelly of AZ.

    I'm not good at predictions, but there is no one on her short list that I don't think would be a good pick. She hasn't talked a lot about her criteria, but I do know that in addition to all the strategic considerations it has to be someone she has the right chemistry with and only she knows who that is. Personally,  I like Tim Walz, but that's because I know the most about him. On the other hand, I'd like to keep him in Minnesota where he is doing such a good job. Also, his views are very similar to Harris' and he might not do enough to expand her base. I'm just going to sit back and see who she picks, knowing she really can't go wrong.

    Yup. Looks like both candidates picked a running mate very much like themselves, except for their appeal to the rural population.

    Shows neither side believes this election is going to be decided by independents.  They both think is will be who gets their base out to vote this time. 

    (I vote today...primary)
