Hi Grandma! Hillary Clinton is spotted arriving at Chelsea's Manhattan home with Secret Service in tow for a quick visit as rumors gather pace that she is plotting a comeback
- Hillary Clinton was spotted arriving at Chelsea Clinton's home Wednesday night
- She was seen getting out of a vehicle with Secret Service in tow around 6.30pm
- But former Democratic presidential nominee didn't stay long and left at 7pm
- Rumors have surfaced that Clinton is plotting a political comeback
- She is reportedly gearing up for Democratic National Committee chair election
- Clinton has kept relatively low profile until she was spotted at daughter's home
Hillary Clinton was spotted arriving at her daughter's home on Wednesday night.
The former Democratic presidential nominee pulled up at Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky's Manhattan home with the Secret Service in tow around 6.30pm.
She only stayed for a half hour before leaving around 7pm.
Clinton has kept a relatively low profile since her election loss in November, possibly planning her rumored comeback. This week, she recorded a video for the MAKERS Conference - focused on women’s leadership - saying 'the future is female'.
A number of Clinton allies told Politico that she is waiting out the Democratic National Committee chair election in February, which is shaping up to be a rematch of the Clinton versus Bernie Sanders Democratic primary war.

Last month, Clinton began looking at a series of reports to examine what went wrong as she and Bill Clinton figure out what's next for the couple who have dominated their party's politics for 25 years.
And Clinton's detractors can take comfort in knowing that the former secretary of state, senator and first lady – nor her ex-president husband – will likely ever appear on a ballot again.
Clinton was seen at the home not long after it was revealed that her son-in-law Mezvinsky quietly shut down his hedge fund Eaglevale Partners back in December.
The decision to shutter the fund came just a few weeks after Clinton lost the election to president Donald Trump.
Bloomberg reported that Mezvinsky and his partners are now working to return money to investors, including Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd C. Blankfein.
He has kept a low profile ever since Clinton's loss, but was photographed by DailyMail.com heading out with his wife Chelsea on Wednesday, shortly before Hillary arrived at the home.

It was revealed last May that Mezvinsky suffered a huge loss after trying to bet on the revival of the Greek economy, forcing him to shut down one of his hedge funds.
He and his partners, former Goldman Sachs colleagues Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon, raised $25 million from investors to buy up bank stocks and debt from the struggling nation.
That fund however has lost 90 per cent of its value, investors with direct knowledge of the situation told The New York Times, and was closed.
Eaglevale Partners was started in 2011 by Mezvinsky and his partners, with their former boss, Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd C. Blankfein, one of the first investors.
Another is leading financier, Marc Lasry, co-founder of $13 billion hedge fund Avenue Capital, where Chelsea worked after graduating from Stanford.

'I gave them money because I thought they would make me money,' Mr Lasry told The Times last year, after investing $1 million in Eaglevale and urging a relative to do the same.
Mezvinsky was long gone from his job at Goldman in October 2013 when his mother-in-law Hillary was paid to give a speech to executives at the company during a technology conference in Arizona.
She was reportedly paid $225,000 for that appearance.
Mezvinsky and his partners had written to clients in 2014 to declare confidence in their 'Hellenic Opportunity' fund, predicting that Greece was on the path to a 'sustainable recovery'.
By that point they had collected $25 million but stopped taking money by the end of that year when it became clear the country's economy would collapse without a massive Eurozone bailout.
Eaglevale said in a letter in February 2015 to investors that year that they had been 'incorrect' to bet on Greece and that is why the company had lost money two of the three years prior. Mezvinsky was seen on a weekday jog last week
The failure is a huge personal blow to Mezvinsky, who is also the son of political figures, albeit less well known that his wife's famed parents. Mezvinsky was seen going for a weekday jog in the middle of the afternoon last week
The Wall Street Journal reported in February 2015 that Eaglevale said in a letter to investors that year that they had been 'incorrect' to bet on Greece and that is why the company had lost money two of the three years prior.
The main fund dropped 3.6% in 2014, gained just 2.06% in 2013 and lost 1.96% in 2012.
The failure is a huge personal blow to Mezvinsky, who is also the son of political figures, albeit less well known that his wife's famed parents.
His father, Edward Mezvinsky, represented Iowa's 1st congressional district in the US House of Representatives for two terms in the 1970s and his mother, Marjorie Margolies, represented Pennsylvania from 1993 to 1995.
Ed Mezvinsky pleaded guilty to 31 charges of felony fraud in 2001 and spent five years in federal prison after he admitted scamming his friends and family out of $10 million in a Ponzi scheme.
Shortly after starting Eaglevale, Mezvinsky and Chelsea moved into a $10 million New York City apartment opposite Madison Square Park.
The four-bedroom, 5,000-square-foot apartment is one of only four residences in the building, which despite the low occupancy rate still has a full-time doorman.
The apartment's hallways stretch a full city block and it has two dishwashers, two washer and dryers, dressing rooms with double-sided vanity mirrors and two massive walk-in closets.
The apartment's current value is closer to $15 million.
