He didn't damage the ticket, so yes.

The downside risk on VP picks is much higher than the likelihood that a running mate will yield any electoral benefit. A candidate who avoids a Palin or Eagleton situation has succeeded.

This. Paul Ryan was a low-risk choice in a decision where a low-risk choice is nearly always the best choice.
