Hillary Clinton's first campaign outing was a memorable one. She made a stop at a cafe and nobody recognized her. In a three-day visit to Council Bluffs, Iowa, she held a top-secret meeting with Democrat insiders while her "Scooby" van was parked in a handicapped space. News reports said she had little interaction with "real people." She ditched her van and flew back east to be met by a town car and a police escort.
Clinton's apparent reluctance to reach out to voters doesn't seem to bother one top Democrat; nor is Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., worried about Clinton's vote in the Senate for the Iraq War. Pelosi, who served briefly as the first woman to become House Speaker, told reporters: "What's important is what it would mean to elect a woman president."
Only in Washington
The Florida man who caused a major security alarm by landing a small helicopter on the U.S. Capitol grounds was held in federal custody briefly, then released and sent home with a warning not to come back.
