Pete Buttigieg warns against nominating Sanders as Vermont senator gains momentum

The former South Bend, Indiana, mayor used his final speech in Nevada on Saturday to first congratulate the Vermont senator on winning the state's caucuses before lambasting the message animating Sanders' campaign, attacking his movement as a "inflexible, ideological revolution" and arguing the "tenor" of his operation is one of "combat, division, and polarization."

The focus on Sanders reflects an urgency from the Buttigieg campaign now that the Vermont senator has turned in a series of strong showings in Iowa, New Hampshire and Nevada and -- in the eyes of his top campaign aides -- could have a "seemingly insurmountable delegate lead" after March 3, when the delegate rich Super Tuesday states will vote.

It's hard not to be discouraged.

I belong to a small group of Pete-niks and we've all been working for him for months. Phone banking, some precinct canvassing and money.

We haven't given up, and Pete hasn't either.
