Hillary Clinton joined Twitter last week and winked at the speculation she may run in 2016 with a self-deprecating bio decribing herself in part as a "hair icon" and "pantsuit aficionado" as well as a "glass ceiling cracker" with a future "TBD".

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, hot on the heels of her badass texting while wearing sunglasses meme, keeps her cooler-than-you image on the front pages. This weekend she was photgraphed dancing and drinking beer from the bottle at a Colombian nightclub. No one should lose any sleep over this. Madam Secretary's wild night lasted all of a half an hour.
