Steve Cohen thinks Marsha Blackburn's death is fodder for amateur comedy

If ever there were an appropriate time to wish your colleague would die, it’s at a prayer breakfast. Right?

Speaking at the Broadway Baptist Church in Memphis last month, during a prayer breakfast hosted by former Democratic Gov. Phil Bredesen’s senatorial campaign, Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., joked that he wished Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., would jump off a local bridge. Blackburn is running against Bredesen for retiring GOP Sen. Bob Corker’s seat. HuffPost obtained audio of Cohen’s remarks this week.
