Hmm, that’s odd. All autumn long I’ve been arguing that Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro would have made a much better and stronger running-mate choice for Kamala Harris. And I’ve heard from Democrats all autumn long that Tim Walz is a great pick, everybody loves him (eh, not so much), and that Shapiro wouldn’t have made much of a difference in Harris’s numbers in Pennsylvania, even though he’s literally more popular than Taylor Swift in the Keystone State.

And now the Harris campaign has unveiled its final ad that will be airing in Pennsylvania and it is . . . narrated by Josh Shapiro, with him sitting next to Harris.
