And though he is from a "swing state," Virginia isn't really a "tipping point" state in my view. If the Democrats lose Virginia, they will also (likely) lose North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Ohio--and if they lose those, that will be the election.
This whole mess needs some safe and boring (and competent). Or an actual adult as Corsi says. It doesn't come off as a particularly pandering choice, and I think the choice makes Hillary look good.

I also don't think Vriginia has much to do with the states you mentioned.
