Erin Burnett has left a new comment on your post "Pete Buttigieg, the former small-city Indiana mayo...":
The message continued throughout the former mayor's run in Nevada, where Buttigieg finished a distant third behind Sanders and Biden.
Buttigieg responded by turning up the heat on the Vermont senator, stoking some of the fears that Democrats have long held about what Sanders, as nominee, would mean to down ballot races. And his campaign put a finer point on it in the days leading up to the first in the west caucus.
"If the dynamics of the race did not dramatically change," the campaign wrote in a memo, "Democrats could end up coming out of Super Tuesday with Bernie Sanders holding a seemingly insurmountable delegate lead."
The question for Buttigieg's campaign going forward is whether they can recover from their February strategy failing to deliver the momentum they had anticipated. Even the most ardent Buttigieg supports believe that, if they can't, the campaign won't make it another month.
And Buttigieg, in a possible sign that he sees himself at the end of his unexpected rise, even slipped at his CNN town hall and said he was at the "end" of his campaign.
"Somebody once called (running for President) an MRI of the soul," he said. "By the end of it -- or, frankly, by the middle of it, you feel like people have gotten to know just about everything about you."
