(Newser) – The new assistant secretary for public affairs loves the color purple, according to Politico—but Hillary Clinton doesn't own any violet pantsuits. So she decided to celebrate Michael Hammer's swearing-in with a number of other purple accessories, including Mardi Gras beads, a ring, and some flamboyant eyewear: a pair of purple and green cat-eye sunglasses. Why all the humor (and dancing)? The Daily Intel blames "senioritis," as Clinton says she's quitting politics after this presidential term.
