Democratic Presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton's security detail led a handful of journalists on two lengthy high-speed chases to homes of influential Democrats on Monday. Her lone official appearance on her first day in New Hampshire was a carefully stage-managed small-business roundtable in Keene. But a lunchtime visit to a main-street bakery and two more appointments later in the day were off-the-books and under the public's radar. If police radar had been engaged, however, it would have clocked Hillary's signature black conversion van - 'Scooby', for the uninitiated – hitting 92 mph in a driving rainstorm on Interstate 89, where the top speed limit is 65. No one in the motorcade displayed flashing lights or blasted a siren.

Does she still have SS protection? I thought that ends after 10 years of leaving the WH?

Too bad she didn’t do a Corzine: wipe out without a seatbelt.

[Paine in the Neck]

Hillary is looking for money.

[Old Sarge]

Okay, that made me laugh in the cube farm...

if she had horrible accident i
would be devastated

How about what if the van slid out of control and hit a van with a single mother and three small children, killing them all?

Make it a lesbian couple and three transgender children, and then the liberals would care. Healthy children, born or unborn? Not a concern of today's left.

I drive I-89 regularly...from New Hampshire all he way up to the Canadian border.There's not a single stretch of that road on which I'd do over 70mph and I drive a German car often seen doing 120mph on the Autobahn.

I drove fast when I was young, but even as a teenager I never drove anywhere near that fast on wet roads. Either her driver is stupid (almost certainly true, since he accepted a job with her) or he’s suicidal (also almost certainly true after spending time with her), or both.

If only the US had special roads or lanes dedicated to high government officials like Moscow.

From the secret service themselves:

Former presidents and spouses get lifetime protection.

Children of former presidents get protection until they’re 16.

Obama changed it back to the way it used to be.
Chicago Mob wanted to have realtime feedback on BJ and Hil.

92mph in the rain?

With any luck, their luck will run out driving like that.
