Christie turned back a longtime state Democratic legislator from Middlesex County, Barbara Buono, who lacked support from her own party, top to bottom. President Obama never uttered her name in public and the Washington-based Democratic Party didn’t fund-raise on her behalf, while in New Jersey more than 60 elected Democrats and even party bosses publicly endorsed Christie.
No, she didn't lack support from "the bottom." I guess the "bottom" is actually the voters, you know, the little people who vote.
Ms. Buono, a Democratic state senator, launched into an attack against those she called “the bosses and the political machines that have defined New Jersey’s politics for far too long.” She thanked aides who “withstood the onslaught of betrayal from our own political party.”
