Hillary Clinton's campaign rollout on social media set Twitter abuzz as she likely hoped, but part of the discussion quickly veered away from the candidate herself to her new logo, and it got a hearty "thumbs down."
The blocky blue "H" with a horizontal red arrow running through it looked like a road sign pointing to a hospital, some said; it looked too similar to the logo for FedEx, others complained; it could easily be compared with a World War II-era Hungarian fascist party logo, a journalist for the Wall Street website Business Insider pointed out.
Worse yet for the would-be 2016 standard-bearer of the left-leaning Democratic Party: The arrow pointed to the right.
"So what lucky 3rd grader won the Design the Hillary Clinton Campaign Logo contest?" Tweeted a commentator with the handle @massfubar to nearly 14,000 followers.
It isn't clear who designed the logo or how much Clinton's campaign team is paying for it. Staff members did not immediately respond to Reuters' questions about the logo.
But the discussion kicked off what, for the Clinton campaign, will be an ceaseless cycle of scrutiny of her and the other presidential candidates. It also became an early reminder that missteps or hiccups by the campaigns, however small or trivial, can echo across social media at lightning speed.

Can you scale them the same? That would be perfect!
Best one so far.
“What difference, at this point, does it make?”
I think the logo is the least of Hillary Clinton’s problems. Just wait Clinton has to answer questions about her innumerable scandals (the MSM, whether they like it or not, has to ask them anyway fairly soon) and the big issue few want to ask: her age.
I copied it. Will print it out, laminate it and viola! Instant bumper sticker.
I tried to do that. I’m not that tech savvy. Not averse to a little help.
What a world, what a world, what worrrrrr......
This will be an instant classic
The arrow is pointed to the right..
is she indicating she will move the Democrat party back towards the middle...
or that its off the charts on the left side and she’s going to try to get it back on the board ???
You mean THAT was actually their real logo? I thought that was from some PAC.
What graphic design dropout conceived of that?
LMAO!!!!
no idea what is behind it
Rhymes with nazi.
You know how much they respect womyn.
