Iowa or bust.--Hillary on a road trip with "Scooby"--meeting folks along the way...

[riversedge]

Cnn just did a good segment on this article. Enjoyed it--the family she met at the gas station was nice and Hillary looked like she is enjoying herself--talking with regular folks along the way.


I am going to see if Scooby has a tweeter hashtag.

First on CNN: Hillary Clinton takes road trip to Iowa

(CNN)Iowa or bust.

Hillary Clinton is kicking off her second bid for the White House with a road trip, riding from New York to her first campaign stop on Tuesday in Iowa. She was spotted on Sunday evening chatting with people at a gas station in Pennsylvania.

Chris Learn, a 19-year-old student at Penn State Altoona, told CNN that he ran into Clinton at a Pilot gas station. He said she greeted him and asked him questions. He also said she was traveling with a group of people in a small caravan.

"I knew it was her immediately," Learn said. "I just saw her and I was like, there's no way that's her!"

He added: "She didn't really say why she was there, but I was guessing it was for presidential stuff."

Clinton is riding in a van, which she has nicknamed "Scooby," an aide said, because it reminds her of the Scooby Doo Mystery Machine from the classic television cartoon. Asked whether she was behind the wheel, an aide said Clinton is riding and the Secret Service is driving.​...........

Clinton Announces Presidential Campaign, Hops In A Van To Iowa

April 12, 201510:21 PM ET




A replica of "The Mystery Machine" van used in the Scooby Doo cartoon series parked at the L.A. Festival of Books in 2012. Hillary Clinton is traveling to Iowa in a van she calls her "Scooby" van.



At around the same time as Hillary Clinton's campaign team in Brooklyn, N.Y., was hitting send on the emails and tweets that officially launched Clinton's presidential campaign, the former first lady was hitting the road — in a van.

Clinton was scheduled to be in Iowa on Tuesday, but instead of flying, she decided she wanted to pack up a van — that she refers to as the "Scooby" van because of its resemblance to the van from the Scooby Doo cartoon — and chat with people along the way.

Along for the ride from New York to Iowa are a couple of aides and a slimmed-down Secret Service detail. The former secretary of state hasn't driven a car in almost 20 years, she admitted last year, and Secret Service is likely driving, per usual, on this trip.

The cat was out of the bag when she stopped at a gas station in Pennsylvania, talked with some people there and someone who spotted her called one of the TV networks, a campaign aide said.

9. I love the name she picked for the van.

I also love that she is on the road with the people.

Someone here accused her last night of sending her staff on the road while she flew. That meme up in smoke.

Another meme is she used actors for her video. Guess what? Another meme up in smoke.

Freerepublic should not be used as a resource guide.

10. I saw some of those same TPs made here

About the actors, etc.
Amazing how some "progressives" are all too willing to parrot RW talking points when it suits their needs.

12. Consider the source. If it's on one place,

it will show up on other sites. Guaranteed. Any port in a storm, or maybe I should say any starboard in a storm. Port is left. Starboard is right.

11. Maybe she should learn to drive it before she names it LOL
