By KASIE HUNT: SEABROOK, N.H. — Sarah Palin’s bus is plastered with a mock-up of the U.S. Constitution. But her entourage — both the three-vehicle motorcade that includes the bus and the smaller, two-SUV version she uses for smaller events — hasn’t been very respectful of traffic laws. They speed. They run red lights and stop signs. They make last-second lane changes to get off the highway, sometimes without signaling.....So do the reporters following them.

Hey folks, we need to get Kelsey Grammer to do a dramatic, over-the-top, reading of this....it would be a hoot!!!

[tallyhoe]

So they are used to Alaska Highways.... Less cars fewer road signs. They are playing it by ear!

Rush read some of this today on his show and stopped and said “I’m not making a word of this up!” lol.

The ‘visual’ of the ‘press’ chasing her, reminds me of the movie It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad World.

[Rational Thought]

These people (and Politico especially) are absolutely desperate.

The little twit “journalist” is reporting MEDIA cars running stop lights.

Her grammer is as worthless as her weak mind - but in a few sentences - she gives it away.

I dig the lines where she describes the “Palin entourage” and flotilla - or however the twit describes it - is two SUVs.

I mean - shoot - that is fewer than the cars in my driveway.

The story is really funny and sad the reporter has to stoop so low!

Frankly, it doesn’t make sense, IMHO, for a potential candidate to run the risk of angering a LOT voters in this way. Doesn’t matter to me if they’re Republican, Democrat, Independent or whatever.

Traffic can be very stressful to start with, and having your trip snarled by a motorcade can be quite frustrating. Traffic is slow and crowded in a lot of places, adding a major interruption only adds to it.

I get mad anytime even the President comes to town and traffic along a five or ten mile route is totally disrupted as his motorcade makes its way from the airport to the venue being used.

Little Kasie must have missed her boy Obama blocking traffic in Ireland when his Beast got hung up on the curb. LOL! Kasie needs to stick with writing for the Home and Garden section and leave reporting to the adults.

I'm sending Sarah some mudflaps for the bus.

[The Cajun]

Thanks, couldn’t find it, thought it was necessary considering the importance of the article.

[Explorer89]

Palin’s two-SUV caravan traveled at 52 miles per hour in a 35 mph zone as it peeled away from the hosts’ neighborhood.

Peeled away at 52 mph?

[PA Engineer]

I got your back. No problema.
