Democratic Blue Dog Rep. Bobby Bright recently made an offhand remark during an appearance in Alabama after he was reportedly asked whether he would support Nancy Pelosi as House speaker if reelected. Bright joked that in the coming months Pelosi “could fall ill and die.” During an appearance with Megyn Kelly to discuss the coming midterms, conservative radio host Mike Gallagher chided Bright for “crossing the line,” but then suggested “throwing a bucket of water on her and see what happens.” Wow.
