I don't think so. Harris is smart to distance herself from the genocide in Gaza. A Shapiro pick would surely generate protests at the University of Michigan.

You're going to have protests anyway. And I don't think it's all that likely that the magnitude of the protests will be materially smaller with Walz than Shapiro as the Veep choice....

....but choosing Walz keeps the Era of Good Feelings part of the campaign alive through the Veep selection and into the convention, which is enormously helpful for Kamala. Everyone in the Democratic party likes Walz, so you don't risk anyone's feelings getting hurt. Which is critical with only ~100 days left in the campaign, and only 50 days until the first ballots go out in Pennsylvania (the earliest swing state).
