They'd definitely help to secure some of the more progressive Democrats with their liberal economic views, and their social views could help in some rural swing areas, where my socially liberal views would be anathema.

He would definitely help secure the more progressive vote, but I'd wonder if the moderate Republicans who I would try to reach out to for crossover votes would be turned off, overall moderately net positive.

It could work, as we're both relatively moderate, I'd imagine that a very far right Republican was nominated with inflammatory rhetoric, which convinced many Republicans to bolt to the Democrats, but it could be work.

Would help secure the leftist vote, but turn off some moderates, overall, probably net positive

It could work, but we're probably too ideologically far apart, maybe could help with progressives though, not thrilled, but not totally upset either.

It could work, but we're both very moderate, so it runs the risk of alienating progressives, the race probably ends up as us doing a bit worse that Gore/Lieberman in 2000, with a Nader type candidate taking even more of the vote than in IRL, not ideal for that reason, maybe they'd help in NC, but not worth it on balance as some of the base is very likely to go Green in this scenario.

Helps appeal to the left wing, so that's a positive, might turn off swing voters, though

It seems fine, he has some progressive appeal, but also some appeal to moderates, so it probably allows us to unite the party and not turn off large segments of the party.

Could work, but probably too moderate for a national ticket, the platform probably needs to move to the left to avoid Green defections

Based on those endorsements, it probably wouldn't work, though Kelly, Collins, and Cooper look good, so maybe we have some common ground, but it doesn't really seem ideal, don't know enough about their views to analyze any further.

Could help swing Pennsylvania, don't know enough about their political leanings, though

I'd be a bit surprised, but it could work. The Republicans probably nominated some far-right extremist, which caused the moderates to defect.

Maybe two people from the New Dem wing of the party isn't such a good idea, especially given we're both from the New York metropolitan area. So, no balance on the ticket at all, which would probably be a bad thing, as it could suggest a narrow coalition that the ticket actually appeals to (moderate suburbanites in the Northeast).
