Erin Burnett has left a new comment on your post "Michael Moore defends Sanders: 'If we vote on fear...":
Moderate unity in Texas
The depths of the Democratic establishment's determination to trip up Sanders was on display in Dallas on Monday night, when bitter debate stage foes Sen. Amy Klobuchar and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, along with former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, all publicly announced their support over the course of a few hours.
The barrage of endorsements, from state lawmakers to a pair of candidates who dropped out of the race in the last 24 hours, has created a united front determined to boost Biden and, just as importantly, block Sanders from running away with party's presidential nomination. If Biden falters, the anti-Sanders crowd will be thrown into a new and heightened stage of panic, with no one -- save for late-entering former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg -- left in the field with the resources or inclination to square off against the Vermont senator and his call for political revolution.
Biden welcomed his former foes Buttigieg, Klobuchar and O'Rourke with warm words as he tried to demonstrate to Democratic voters across the country that he -- not Bloomberg -- was the consensus choice to take on Sanders.
"I don't think I've ever done this before, but he reminds me of my son, Beau," Biden said of Buttigieg, referring to the son that died of brain cancer as the two appeared together for the first time.
"And folks, I wasn't joking: Amy won all of the debates," he said of Klobuchar later at a show-of-force rally in Dallas.
Adding their former supporters could help Biden expand a playing field Tuesday that his campaign had previously worried would be limited to racking up delegates in largely African American congressional districts in the south, but that now looks much broader.
Biden's closer in Dallas was O'Rourke, who electrified Texas Democrats during his 2018 Senate run.
"We need somebody who can beat Donald Trump. The man in the White House today poses an existential threat to this country, to our democracy, to free and fair elections; and we need somebody who can beat him. And in Joe Biden we have that man," O'Rourke said.
While Biden's rallies were infused with an enthusiasm that had eluded him until just days ago, endorsements continued to rain in from afar. In Nevada, former Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid, a party elder respected across its ideological chasm, also backed Biden, calling him the "candidate who can assemble the largest, most diverse coalition possible to defeat Trump and lead our country following the trauma of Trump's presidency."
