Former Democratic presidential primary candidates Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar plan to endorse former vice president Joe Biden ahead of the crucial Super Tuesday elections, according to sources who spoke to Reuters.
A campaign aide for Klobuchar said she plans to endorse Biden when she formally announces the suspension of her campaign during a Biden rally in Dallas on Monday night. A top advisor for Buttigieg said the former South Bend mayor also intends to endorse Biden.
The two endorsements give Biden an informal lead in total delegate count, since the pledged delegates are likely to stick with the endorsements. Buttigieg and Klobuchar won a total of 33 candidates before dropping out of the race. Socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) formally leads the race with 60 delegates to Sanders 54.
Sharpening them knives

Good writing.
So their plan is to screw over Bernie, who has huge support, then beat Trump how?
What am I missing here?
They can’t be this stupid.
The idea is to quit and endorse Biden, in order to prevent Bernie from gaining any more delegates.
It’s the stop Bernie movement.
Money, apparently, has changed hands is my guess; perhaps some intimidation as well.
Of course they CAN be “that stupid”!
Plus promises of lush cabinet positions...
Sacrificing the election to save the Party?
Joe will he like Hillary..but no enthusiasm..at lest women want a woman president..
If Joe gets elected it will be all Obamas people back in power...Joe will be in the rocking chair..
Well I guess Bloomy could get it at the last minute..
Isn’t this kind of like Mitt Romney endorsing someone for dog catcher?
To complete the illusion that they are doing this out of their own free will, they should read their endorsements from a teleprompter with blood and dirt on their faces, wearing dishevled clothing, and with two uniformed men holding automatic weapons in the background.
“Of course they CAN be that stupid!”
I really don’t think so.
They’re planning some kind of shiite.
IF/WHEN Bernie gets screwed again his hard core supporters, SHAFTED twice, will stay home in droves.
IF/WHEN Biden steals the nomination and loses to Trump the power in the Democrat party goes full RETARD Left.
TWO so-called “moderate” Democrats will have failed, therefore the Democrat party needs to go FULL Socialist.
I wonder who helped them get their minds right?
Apparently Cankles and Bill still wield mucho power!
Well Rush said they got phone calls from 0bama.
What about the people who already voted early?
Biden can NOT beat Trump; he was always the "designated loser"!
The Bernie people will NEVER vote for Biden ( especially after being "stiffed for the second time in a row! ) and will probably stay home; though some just might vote for Trump out of spite.
Beware the Ides of Joe. Feel the Bern, bernbots. Any dedicated to the “struggle”? jimmiehodgkinson might have been. I’d ask him but he’s dead, too.
Run DNC
That too.
