    This seems to suggest it might be Shapiro, though the stop in Arizona also suggests Kelly.

    edit: guys, this would be the first VP I’ve met if it’s Shapiro, get excited with me!

      I’m pretty sure Shapiro has a high approval rating in the state. Would definitely help deliver PA I would think.

      Edit: decided to quickly look it up, he does have pretty good approval there

      “He’s not too radical, he actually seems to try to work with both parties,” said Michael Paletta, 64, a registered Republican who supports Trump but also approves of Shapiro.

      “He’s been running for president since he became attorney general eight years ago,” said Paletta, who lives in Mars, Butler County. “He’s as good as anyone else. He’s at least younger and he understands, he’s not 80 years old.”

      It’s definitely not sounding like an all-woman ticket, which disappoints me. This seems like the perfect opportunity.

      But I guess their internal polling suggests otherwise.
