I’m sure you also enjoyed the fairly recent “celebrity doppelganger” profile picture trend, which involved users posting photographs of stars they’ve been told they resemble. If politicians could run personal Facebook accounts, they’d probably get a kick out of the exercise as well, but because they’re too high profile and busy to upload snapshots of their celebrity doppelgangers, we’re going to do it for them.

At This Point, Who Doesn’t Want Hillary To Run?

hillary clinton

No matter your politics, you cannot argue that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton isn’t a cool lady. Even comedian Jason Segel thinks she’s funny, and conservatives have argued that she’s tougher than President Barack Obama. That’s why we’re far from shocked that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is the latest woman in power to urge the former first lady to seek oval office.

Kirsten Gillibrand Weighs In On The Birth Control Debate [VIDEO]

Kirsten-Gillibrand

In case you missed last night’s Republican debate (which would be sad because it was highly entertaining), and feel left out because you were watching reruns of The Big Bang Theory instead of listening to the Gingrich-Santorum birth control craziness, here’s a video of Senator Kirsten Gillibrand on this morning’s episode of MSNBC’s Morning Joe to fill you in.
