Shaprio, Cooper or Beshear would be my top 3 guesses.
I’m in NC and like Roy Cooper a lot. I think he’s done a good job the past eight years. I have a little bit of a hard time seeing him as a VP. I’ve always felt like he has this sort of “aw shucks” attitude, which is perfectly fine as governor, but I don’t know how it’ll play as a VP candidate. I have a hard time seeing him as the attack dog the VP candidate typically plays.
But with that said, he has won state wide multiple times and maybe him on the ticket would be enough to put NC truly in play.
It would be interesting to see what would happen with a Harris-Buttigieg ticket. My gut tells me the homophobia would be hard to tamp down on the right (maybe announce on Grindr?) and could work in the Dems favor. I know the left has had a hard-on for him for some time now so it would add the likability/excitement factor that Harris lacks on her own.
Wouldn’t happen, but it would be interesting to see play out. More so than what’s happening at the moment.
I also like Mayor/Secretary Pete. Aside from his sexual orientation, too many wingnuts think he’s personally to blame for all the air travel woes the last couple of years and would hold that against him.

FIFY. Remember that these are the same people who blame Biden because trump’s buddy and benefactor decided to invade Ukraine.
