MEMPHIS, Tenn. - "No, it won't be a hard race. You guys talk about two titans, but we're in different leagues. Its going to be a beat down.... a real beat down," says Herenton.

That was Memphis Mayor Willie Herenton last week when he made the announcement he's leaving office to work in the private sector and ramp up his campaign for Congress.

And in an interview with the Memphis Flyer, Herenton called the incumbent Congressman Steve Cohen a bad name not once but twice.

Congressman Cohen joins us with more on this race that is getting ugly before its really gotten going.
