Politico: “Shapiro, another finalist, avoided the green-room circuit and instead touted Harris and his own record at a series of events throughout the state. A pro-Harris event in Philadelphia turned into a Shapiro-for-VP party.”
“His style was seen by at least some in Harris’ world as showboating. One senior Democrat in touch with Harris’ team called it ‘counterproductive.’”
“And there was a sense within Shapiro’s team that, unlike Walz, his interview with Harris did not go as well as it could have. There was ‘not a great feeling’ coming out of it.”
“After their meeting on Sunday, Shapiro called Harris’ team and made clear that he was ‘struggling with the decision to leave his current job as governor of Pennsylvania, in order to seek the vice presidency.’”
