Barbara Lee considering a bid for House Democratic Leadership role held by Rep. Cowley
And I can get behind that . . . Integrity and compassion.

Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) has begun talking to fellow Democrats about running for chair of the House Democratic Conference, the leadership role held by Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-N.Y.).
I was not seriously considering this until Tuesday night, Lee said. If this were not an open seat, Id be making a different calculation. But things move fast around here, and I didnt want to wait until November to start looking at this.
