If you were a tourist in Washington, D.C. in the early '90s, there's a chance you could've seen Hillary Clinton and not even known it. Asked at a New Hampshire town hall Wednesday what she would do if she could be anonymous for the day, Clinton dished on how she sometimes did just that when she was first lady.

"I would put on a baseball cap and sunglasses and, you know, sweat pants and a sweat shirt and pull my hair back and I would go walk," Clinton said. "I would tell the Secret Service they had to wear casual clothes, they had to take the thing out of their ears, they had to look like they were just tourists."
