I don't know how much Biden's early struggles were on his campaign vs. the man himself not coming out looking as strong as people would hope. That gave room for the campaigns of Klobuchar and Buttigieg to strike and for Bloomberg to try and buy an election. Though there are probably very good staff members on both campaigns. Pete's advisor Lis Smith seems to be well respected for the work she's done to make a mayor of South Bend such a hot commodity.


As I say this she's apparently on twitter telling a reporter that whomever their source was saying Pete would endorse Biden tonight at a rally was dead wrong and should be ignored. I'm sure it was probably some third level staffer who heard that Buttigieg was going to endorse and wanted to leak the info and filled in the blanks. A weird thing to get on a high horse about.

Since I literally just watched him endorse Biden, I’m a little confused by her tweet
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

It wasn't at a rally, it was at a little personally meeting/group thing. It was a semantic thing. Like I said, a low level staffer in either the Buttigieg or Biden camp probably heard it through the grapevine and leaked it to the press while filling in the (wrong) details.

Yea that's basically it

If you are mad about this tweet- @petebuttigieg didn’t go to endorse at the big Dallas rally as CNN reported. We set up an OTR separately and CNN got it wrong. At some point, media outlets should acknowledge when they get it wrong.

Ok. It kinda looked like a rally tbh. In any event, pretty amateur move to shit on the endorsement moment by splitting hairs about something that literally no one cares about besides you

most of the best organizers i know are working for either warren or sanders, so yeah. pete seemed to be the only other candidate that had any game going in PA at this point. he *should* probably swoop them up. i am not counting bloomberg as anyone working for him is just gross.

Can't believe it's only been 5 days since I got Biden to win the nomination at +750, and angry at 5 days ago me for only putting $40 on it.

Biden to Oakland tomorrow morning. Kamala endorsement certainly makes sense.

It is quite something. Still a long road ahead. Biden has a lot of ground game catching up to do.

Sure are generating a narrative though.

Eh, if it had to be any of "them," I'm glad it's him.
