Texas rep. among the State of the Union "aisle hogs"

The sharp-eyed journalists over at Salon have identified a handful of members of Congress who always seem to be perfectly positioned to greet the president as he enters for the annual State of the Union address.

One of the most recognizable "aisle hogs," they say, is Texas' own Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, the seven eight-term Democrat from Houston.

Check out this video below, where Jackson Lee often enjoys prime access to presidents throughout the years as they walk down the center aisle of the House of Representatives.

For those watching tonight's address (which starts at 8 p.m. CST), try to spot if Jackson Lee has once again staked out a choice perch to greet the president.
