Biden races to lock down moderates as Buttigieg exit rocks rapidly shifting Democratic race

https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/02/politics/super-tuesday-biden-buttigieg/index.html

Interesting formulation. Intentional or not, the bolded section in this excerpt seems like a bit of dig at Sanders.

Fourteen states and American Samoa will vote on Tuesday on the biggest day of the Democratic primary -- with 34% of the party's pledged delegates up for grabs. Sanders expects a big win in California, the day's biggest prize, as well as in other western and northeastern states. Biden is aiming to build on his advantage with African American voters in southern states like Alabama and North Carolina. The biggest battleground could be Texas, where Biden is campaigning Monday, and Sanders is hoping to recreate the Latino-led coalition that led him to victory in Nevada.

Biden's blowout win in South Carolina is rapidly reshaping the Democratic race, as Biden moves to lock down the party's Democratic wing.

On the bright side, at least they didn't compare Bernie's campaign to the Nazi invasion of France like Chris Matthews did.

Biden has a poor presence in Tuesday states, low cash and has not campaigned much.
