The actual Mystery Machine (not the “Scooby van”) was reminiscent of a VW Minibus like the ones all good hippies aspired to own, and could do 0-60 downhill, perhaps.
Hillary Clinton’s black, mirrored-glass, up-armored luxury touring van of the people is somewhat more powerful:
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.
Meanwhile, the “candidate” continues to campaign at more intimate venues as seen below in these AP photos.
