J. Dudley, If she keeps acting strange - I would like to adopt you. I can tell that you would fit into my family very well and I would keep my emotions under check while feeding you excessive amounts of cheese.

Oh, dear Dudley, my two kitties were loving me up at the same time. I don't normally cry watching a political rally, but those were sure happy tears last night!!!!!

This is so strange, Dudley. Even though you’re out of town, my human had the same reactions to the TV yesterday. Very emotional and teary. Then, after leaving me alone for an inordinately long time for something called “Dinner and a Show”, my human came home and watched the same TV show again! Although without the tears, but with a big smile on his face. And he stayed up later than he has in a long, long time, maybe since I was a puppy and he had to take me outside every two hours, although that was a long time ago…..RUBY

Ruby, Dudley asks, isn’t it nice to see our humans smiling so much?

J. Dudley, I'm not political at all, but I am feeling more hopeful about this election. And the more I see and hear about "The Coach" from many people, the better I feel. Don't worry too much about your she-human, just keep giving the hugs and snuggles.

I wish I could, but my humans said I can't run for president even though I have a plan for world peace (everyone get a dog). https://open.substack.com/pub/jdudleygilbert/p/dudleys-key-to-world-peace?r=a0yl&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Exactly, J Dudley, how I reacted watching the television last night and thinking of my favorite freedom advocate and County organizer for the very best Democratic candidates. Yes, Nancy, we are taking your enthusiasm and organizing excellence to the finish. She married a Coach and knew the drills. Go Coach put us in. Yes

J Dudley your human Mom is hopeful and happy. And by the way, ask her what exactly does "dangerously liberal" mean?

Dangerously liberal? I don't know what that means, but I do know a lot of people who used to live in Iowa have moved to Minnesota for a lot of reasons. It seems this coach is doing a lot to welcome families, including their dogs, to the state. I mean, why WOULDN'T the state's First Parent want to make sure all children had food for lunch?
