Hillary Clinton, one half of the — ahem — “comeback couple,” hinted at Sen. Tom Harkin’s steak fry in Iowa Sunday that she is considering a run for president in 2016. A shocker, we know.

The longer the word “baaack,” the bigger the threat it seems. But about “that other thing.”
Hillary: there’s that other thing. Well it is true, I am thinking about it. But for today, that is not not why I’m here.

Hillary, the big tease: "Then, of course, there’s that other thing. It is true, I am thinking about it…”

Hillary to Iowa: "It’s really great to be back. Let’s not let another seven years go by.” (wink, wink) #steakfry2014

another line crafted to be quoted. Hillary: "It’s great to be back. Let’s not let another seven years go by." #HarkinSteakFry

Crowd polite, but not falling-out-of-their-seats enthusiastic for Hillary's #SteakFry appearance. Only red meat the stuff on grills.

A small group outside the event were decidedly not ready for Hillary.
