Hillary Clinton’s new Twitter account went live today. Welcome, to Twitter, Mme. Secretary! We look forward to your tweets!
Edited to add: She is simply vacuuming up followers! She may be setting some kind of Twitter record. Not to mention the rate at which the media is posting opinions on this development. Speculation is rampant!
Her bio is hillarious

She has one more biggie to add to that bio someday. It will be… historic. *smirk*
I just might have to break down and open an account on twitter now. Dammit. I have made it this far with avoiding facebook and twitter like the plague. I read she had something like 100,000 followers after only an hour? That sounds pretty much on the record – so pretty soon she’ll have 18 million on there who support her and another 18 million or so who will get the full brunt of her supporters and who will get schooled in what she is really about.
Go Hilz. The Atlantic said she was AWESOME in her debut. She’s finally kewl!

I don’t understand why they say she did not use social media in 2008. She had a link to her Twitter account right up front on HillaryClinton.com. I learned about Twitter from her and joined it just to follow her. She was also on Facebook and MySpace where her account remains. The Twitter and FB accounts came down after she suspended, but MySpace is so lame that apparently Obama’s staff never even noticed that she was there. She still is.

Last week I read a post from someone on some site that insisted Rand Paul, Rubio or Cruz would wipe the floor with Hillary because she has lost all her followers. I nearly choked on laughter reading that.
Scanning through the tweets – we are not so alone in our admiration. Good to see how many are thrilled and so excited about her. This is such great news.
She deserves every single accolade. Hooray for Hillary. One little tweet. lol.

Today is an important day for the Clinton family. Bill said his most important job was walking Chelsea down the aisle. How adorable! Congrats to the Father of the Year.
