We got this at around 7 pm:
"Barbara Buono is the clear choice to move New Jersey forward. Whether it is improving our schools, protecting our seniors, fighting for women's healthcare, ensuring civil rights for all New Jerseyans, or providing economic relief that our workforce and middle-class desperately needs, Barbara Buono reflects true Democratic values and believes in the middle-class. These values unify our party, solidify our resolve and are the reasons all Democrats must stand with Barbara."

Being that in 2010 he pledged all that money to Newark Schools, sure he better support Cory
