Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee says she plans to run for Houston mayor
[NBCNEWS] Texas Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee
...the clownish U.S. Representative-for-life for Texas's 18th congressional district, serving since 1995. The district includes most of inner-city Houston. She is noted for her lack of tact and intellect. She is a member of the Democratic Party, and almost its epitome...
said Sunday that she plans to run for mayor of Houston later this year, shaking up an already crowded race.

Jackson Lee announced her decision to run for mayor while speaking City Cathedral Church in Houston on Sunday, which the Houston Chronicle first reported. She's served in the House since 1995 and before that sat on Houston's city council.

"I hope I've been a humble servant for you for 28 years. Many of you are in my district," the longtime congresswoman said, according to video of her remarks. "Sheila Jackson Lee wants to come home to be your mayor for the city of Houston. I will not be able to do it without each and every one of you."
Sheila Jackson Lee and "humble" in the same statement? The apocalypse is upon us
Jackson Lee's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The current mayor, Sylvester Turner, cannot run for re-election due to term limits.

#2 The greatest danger here is that, if she gets it, Sheila Jackass Lee would be required to actually do something, as opposed to as opposed to just bitch and gripe all the time.
(Sorry about the language. I truly detest the woman. Worked for years in her district.)
