Cohen Down With Calipari, Not Lamar

By Kleinheider Posted on September 15, 2008 at 2:02 pm

Jackson Baker has Steve Cohen’s explanation of his appearance at a fundraiser for Lamar Alexander’s Senate re-election effort:

Cohen cautioned that his appearance at the fundraiser shouldn’t be misconstrued. “Coach Cal is a good friend of mine. He’s ‘Mr. Memphis, as far as I’m concerned. So when he asked me to come by as a courtesy, I said I would.” The congressman noted also that he had appeared with Alexander at a joint press conference at The Med earlier Friday and that the fundraiser had occurred shortly thereafter.
