Clinton rivals open attacks on record

Hillary Clinton will hold her first campaign event in Iowa today after she formally announced that she is seeking the Democratic nomination for president in 2016.

Clinton was travelling cross-country in a minivan nicknamed ‘Scooby’. A Clinton aide said the van is nicknamed after the Mystery Machine van in the 1970s animated television show, The Scooby Doo Show.

“This was her idea, and she’s been really excited about it since she came up with it,” long-time Clinton aide Huma Abedin told a conference call.
