Breaking News: Christie Announces Formal Endorsement of His Own State Senator, Tony Bucco

PARSIPPANY, NJ - In a game-changing turn of events, Chris Christie today announced the endorsement of his own State Senator, Tony Bucco.  Christie spent months wooing Bucco in one of the state's most Republican districts, choosing to dispatch emissaries on a daily basis to Boonton instead of focusing on securing support in the state's battleground counties.  In the end, it paid off:  the Senator finally decided to enter the fray and make a formal, public endorsement.   Senator Bucco's endorsement comes at a critical time in the campaign: with only 40 days left in the race, endorsements from candidates' own parties are traditionally viewed as a bellwether.
 
"This is truly a game-changing moment in this campaign, and you can expect us to talk loudly and proudly about this endorsement," said Christie-Guadagno Campaign Manager Bill Stepien.  "Now that we've got Senator Bucco wrapped up, we move on to our next target: Congressman Rodney Frelinghuysen."
