Former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg is set to endorse former Vice President Joe Biden in the Democratic presidential race one day after suspending his own campaign, according to a source close to the Biden campaign.
Buttigieg's planned endorsement comes as another moderate former presidential contender, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), also plans to throw her support behind Biden after she dropping out on Monday.
The latest endorsements for Biden point to a consolidation of the moderate lane of the Democratic race in an effort to block progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) from getting the nomination.

Primetime speaking slot at the convention.
This dem convention will rival Chicago ‘68 for action.
These losers dropping out and endorsing Biden is just gonna infuriate their supporters and further anger the Bernie Bros.
The Democratic establishment has all the charm, grace and wisdom of the old Chicago Mayor Daley:

Any you missed aren’t worth mentioning.
Good job!
(coached voice) Because I’ve got a place he can put that dog-faced horse... something.
I totally agree.
The Dem machine probably told Butt Boy they will back him in a Senate run. Then in 8 years he can run again. Then MAYBE the country will be ready for a openly gay president.
Bingo. 2004, anyone?
Such a deep state puppet that one is.
Biden and Hunter are dipping into their slush fund?
All to boost Biden to stop Bernie hurting Dems down ballot.
Pete got a book deal (the new legal payola), maybe a cabinet position, and backing for his soon U. S. Senate race.
Amy might have asked for Secretary of State job. Possibly VP.
This election comes down to the Rust Belt. Biden can compete for those votes.
Shouldn’t the headline be:
Buttgig $t to ndor$ Bidn?
(would have changed the B to bitcoin, but I don’t have the symbol readily available. :P )
Here is the Dem game plan. Stop Bernie at all costs. Get Biden to the convention. Then it will be neither Bernie or Biden. Those super delegates are good for something. The Bernie Bros. are going to wreck Milwaukee. It ain’t going to be pretty.
And then there's the hands on children, women, wives...
This is embarrassing.
the moderate lane
Stop the lies.
Biden-Butt 2020!
