President Barack Obama has officially endorsed Congressman Steve Cohen (D-TN) in his re-election campaign for the 9th Congressional District.
Congressman Cohen is a proven leader in the United States Congress and a strong voice for Tennessee.
Together, we passed historic health care reform and together were continuing the fight to renew our economy and bring jobs back to the American people.

Charlotte Bergmann http://www.bergmannforcongress.com/ is the CONSERVATIVE candidate running against this obama butt kisser.
Another “Kiss of Death” from 0bama!
Poor Steve. He probably did nothing to deserve anything like this!
Now we have official confirmation from the head septic tank bottom dweller that Cohan is a liar, a sleezebag, has absolutely no morals, and would sell his grandmother for a beer.
Oh, forgot, he’s a dim-bulb-crat.
All the above was a given, then.
Adios, Steve.
The kiss of DOOM for this campaign....
You beat me to it...
“Another Kiss of Death”
Sad. I was thinking Cohen would be easier for Bergmann to defeat. Now Cohen has the Obama kiss of death.
I wonder if Barack Hussein is planning any similar “kiss of death” anointment's during his vacation in Maine.
From your lips to GOD’s ear.
This is going to be one bloody race baiting race. King Willie knows all the dirt on old Stevie, and old Stevie knows all the dirt on King Willie.
Stevie is single, middle aged....no known female girl friends that I’ve ever heard of. No known male girl fiends have been linked to him so far.
Cohen requested it.
Never know, I will work as hard for Charlotte as my time and health allow. The Mid South Tea Party has her speaking at most of their events and I think are endorsing her. She does need more air time, and more SIGNS out.
King willie and stevie are fussing over a debate, king willie wants to dictate which people are asking the questions.
Even it it is king willie, he can’t attack a black female business woman, it would lose him votes.
She will get my vote. Shortly, she will get a donation from me. I wish I could get out and do more for her.
The Congressional Black Caucus is not going to like this.
When Cohen tried to join, the CBC told him that Honkies weren’t allowed.
And it won’t go over very well in the “community” in Memphis that Barry has passed over King Willie in favor of the Cracker.
"Together, we passed historic health care reform and together were continuing the fight to renew our economy and bring jobs back to the American people."
My yard sign is out, my neighbor has one too. They are black, and the woman works at LeBonheur, hard working couple. They know they don’t want more taxes. I’ve already passed out Charlotte’s handouts for my street. Can you make phone calls?
Talk to people, pass out literature to those you talk to. I usually hand them my Medicare Cut & Gut list and tell them cohen voted to saddle them with 35 new taxes and cut their granny’s medicare. You can get 2 to the page if you work it right.

“This endorsement does not change the reality that African Americans are not represented in the Tennessee Delegation,” Herenton said.
Herenton said is Cohen outnumbered because, according to his research, Herenton will get 80 percent of the black vote, and this favor from the president was another desperate antic.
“Trying to act black, trying to bring back the plantation days. None of that’s going to work,” he said.
Herenton’s campaign slogan is ‘Just One,’ meaning, Tennessee should have at least one African American representative in the state’s most predominantly African American district.
Cohen said it’s about content of character.
“If race was the issue, President Obama wouldn’t be president,” he said. “He was elected based on his promise to the American people, his capabilities, his charisma, his vision and his issues.”
But to Herenton, Obama’s endorsement was purely political.
“I going to always be respectful to the president, but he doesn’t know the aspirations of people in this community,” Herenton said. “He made a political decision.”
Cohen said Obama didn’t deliver the message personally because of the Gulf oil spill, but the president or first lady may come to Memphis later this year.
As Cohen returns to Washington, Herenton is planning to hold a freedom tour Friday, where his campaign will caravan early voters to the polls.
