Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar ended her Democratic presidential campaign on Monday and endorse rival Joe Biden in an effort to unify moderate voters behind the former vice president’s White House bid.
She is flying to Dallas and plans to join Biden at his rally Monday night.

And then there were four. Pocahantas is next in which case Biden will be the young candidate at 77 in this Dem very old white men fest, two with bum tickers and the third with manifestations of dementia.
Klobernobber had no business being in the race, and she’s certainly not VP material. This may, hopefully, be the end of the line for her.
If the "machine" thinks it's inevitable that Trump will win, then they move to protection mode to preserve control.
On the other hand, if Democrats nominate Sanders and he loses, I doubt he will take over the party machinery; he might actually be exiled from the party since he's an Independent.
If he should win the Presidency, the party may treat him the same way that Republicans initially treated Trump, trying to maintain control of the machine for true, historical Democrats.
In Trump's case, his policies worked and he taught a weak and feckless party how to stand up for themselves against the Democrats.
In Sanders' case, his policies will be disruptive, destructive, and targeted to certain political groups. It will be interesting to see how much of the Democrat machine eventually signs up for it, compared to how the Republicans (mostly) came around to Trump.

Notice How Big Media figures their Faithful can’t handle TOO much virus news at the momnent?
Pretty soon, as soon as Hillary gets a Scotus appointment promise.
“How will the DNC convince Bloomberg to drop out?”
Exempt him from all new taxes.
He has obvious signs of dementia. Baffles me that they are supporting him. Whomever is the VP pick will prob be the president rather quickly.
With nice smelling hair....................
Me too
“I’m surprised this many are quitting between SC and Super Tuesday.”
By order of the DNC; you agree to a deal, or else.
What happened to womyn power?
Been replaced by power to the senile people!
Biden does not have strong support anywhere. He may lose tomorrow badly in many states. Bloomberg may do better than Biden.
Remember, 15% is the threshold for getting delegates. Bernie and Bloomberg could take them all in many states.
Warren may take some as well.
We will have a clearer picture on Wednesday.
Watch the puppets dance.
Dance, puppets, dance!
Pure Prairie League:
Amy, what you gonna do?
It seems your campaign is through
So you’ll endorse Biden, if you do...
Yep!
They know their plan to use Bloomberg to block Bernie is going to fail.
The only thing left is to try and unite behind Creepy Joe.
This will not help them in CA, WA or OR.
If this is their "A" team, then they sure haven't been recruiting at the gym, perhaps they are grooming intensive care unit patients.
“Maybe they realized that Sanders would get a larger percentage of delegates if they all stayed in and split the vote.“
That’s right. There are two types of Democrats: Bernie, and everyone else.
Bernie apparently didn’t get the memo that as a Democrat you are supposed to keep your Marxist beliefs and your hatred of the USA a secret. He’s going around telling the truth and ruining everything!
The other candidates know they are supposed to lie.
Ironically, if they nominate one of the liars, they will lose because they are liars. If they nominate Bernie, he will lose because he tells the truth about being a Marxist.
