Te Quiero Puerto Rico!

Hello.Hey, Bloggy Friends!


Hillary scored another huge victory in Puerto Rico yesterday! She took the primary by a whopping 36 points. Since Obama's winning spree in February, Hillary has been doing exceptionally well in the primaries. She continues to draw huge numbers, despite the universal feeling that she needs to throw in the towel (or pant suit). I'm proud of her for staying in the race. If it weren't for her decision to stick it out, these states (and territories) wouldn't have had a chance to share their voices in the decision making process. Because of the attention throw on Puerto Rico, we have been able to more prominently hear the issues that are facing them. At this point I think her involvement in the process has become much larger than merely trying to capture the nomination. She is a shining example for everyone out there who will do well to learn to stick things out when the going gets tough. You go, Girl. Who knows, things may turn around and shock our pants off in the upcoming week!I am wholeheartedly sticking to my theory that Hillary will be the very best candidate to beat that Republican guy in November. Her involvement, either as a candidate or supporter, will be a crucial component for victory in the fall's general election.

Montana and South Dakota will be the final states to head to the polls on Tuesday, June 3rd. Obama is expected to win both, but hopefully Hillary can narrow that lead a bit before the votes are cast. I'm anxious to see what the end result will be. This thing has been going on for a very long time. I'm anxious to see how the general election will play out. I hope the candidates have a window of time to catch up on some rest before they go head to head with the mean, nasty republicans!!

Have a great day, ya'll.

I love you!

In Political News: Thank You, Kentucky!

Hello.Hey, Bloggy Friends!


Yesterday the democratic Presidential primary was held in Kentucky. Hillary won it with a resounding thirty-five point victory! With only two weeks left in the primary race, Hillary is hanging on, saying she still sees a pathway to the nomination. As I said before, I'm hanging in as long as she does!

I think it really says something that, even after she has been practically counted out, she is still commanding serious turnout in all of the recent primaries. I'm still holding my breath for a dream ticket. I realize this is nearly as likely as Hillary winning the nomination, but a fellow can dream can't he? I believe together they would kick John McCain's hairy, white ass! That was vulgar!

In primaries held in Oregon, Obama took the lead with sixteen points. This was also an expected win for him. He has won many of Oregon's surrounding states and even the areas of California on the Oregon border. There are three more primaries to go before the process wraps up - Montana, Puerto Rico and South Dakota. I'm going to predict he will win Montana and South Dakota by a margin of at most 15. She will win Puerto Rico by the about the same. We'll see if I'm right!

I hope you're having a fantastic day. It is gorgeous in Philly. Galileo is doing great, he is such a little charmer. We started house training him yesterday. It wasn't the best day to start. It was raining out, so we were both miserable as we stood there waiting for him to "go potty." I've taken some puppy advice from a few friends, so we are going to hang in there and be patient with him. If any of you (Bloggy Friend Bill) have any house training suggestions, I'm all ears!

Have a great day.

Love, Josh

The West Virginia 41: Victory in the Mountain State!

Hello.Hey, Bloggy Friends!


Last night was a huge win for Hillary in West Virginia. She took the state by an overwhelming 41-point margin! Though the press has shunned the victory, I think it really does say a lot about her chances in the fall. Take note that no democrat has won a presidential election without first taking West Virginia since Woodrow Wilson in 1916 (SOURCE). The 67 percent of the vote she took home last night, represents a monstrous support system that will enable her to easily take the state in November.

I guess we'll have to see what happens in the upcoming primaries. At this point it seems like her chances are slim — but wouldn't it be a fun shocker if she did turn it around and win? I'm hanging in there as long as she does. Like I said before, I am anxious to see good ole Kentucky in the news this week. I will be there this weekend to wave my Hillary sign, before their primary election on Tuesday. It's your turn, Kentucky, to get out there and make your voices heard!

In other news: I am officially finished with my semester. I just returned from taking my last final! Oh, what a relief to wash my hands of the semester and venture out into an exciting, Philadelphia summer!

Also, have you stopped by CASEY'S blog today? In his newest post he includes a link to pictures of his new home! It is the cutest thing you can imagine. Stop by to check them out. I'm so happy for them.

Have a fantastic afternoon, Bloggy Friends. I am going to lay back and have a well-deserved, relaxing afternoon!
Love you all!

"Thank You, Indiana, Thank You!"

Hello.Hey, Bloggy Friends!


Well, the numbers from last nights primaries in Indiana and North Carolina are in, and they aren't quite as impressive as I hoped they would be. My girl, Hillary, did take the win in Indiana by a narrow margin. The Indiana primary was previously referred to as the tie-breaker, but I don't see that it actually breaks any ties. We are basically in the same boat we were in before - no decisive winner. Looking ahead, it doesn't seem like there will be much of a change when all the primaries are said and done. The two candidates will seemingly continue to flip-flop wins back and forth, and divide the delegates evenly within the states. I guess the superdelegates are going to be the deciding factor, and in that instance Hillary better have a pretty strong argument. I'm guessing she still feels pretty confident, given the fact that she has decided to stay in the race. I really want to see her win, but more than anything I'm becoming a little fatigued with the whole ordeal. I am really anxious for a winner to be decided so we can move on to the more important election in November. It will be enjoyable to see Kentucky in the spotlight in the coming weeks. They will hold their primary with Oregon on May 20th. But for now - onto West Virginia!

I hope you guys have a fantastic day. Yesterday and today have been designated as "study days," for us at Temple. I have been utilizing them to do just that - study and finish a few final projects. Tomorrow I take my second final in my Journalism class. Wish me luck! Do I sound like a broken record with all this school talk? Sorry! It'll all be over soon.

Love & Happiness on this beautiful, Wednesday afternoon!

Comeback Clinton!

Good Morning, Bloggy Friends!

I was tossing and turning all night, wondering what the outcome of the election would be today. When I awoke this morning it was all worth it. My girl pulled it through! After tireless efforts to campaign in Texas and Ohio, she pulled out major wins - that she no doubt is extremely proud of.

I am glowing with joy for her today. After a terrible, February, she has made a comeback worth recognizing! This victory succeeds in reinforcing Hillary's reputation as a fighter. She is not afraid to put everything she has into getting the job done. That is exactly what this country needs after the treacherous B@*h administration!

Go Hillary! I love you and wish you luck in the coming months - on to Pennsylvania!!

I love you all, Bloggy Friends!

I'm so happy!

Josh

Thank you Texas, Rhode Island and Ohio!!!

Bloggin' For Hillary!

Hi Bloggy Friends!

Well the weekend has come to a close. I hope it was a good one for all of you. Have you tried the Turmeric trick yet? I couldn't find any at Trader Joe's, so I'm going to have to wait until I hit up another grocery store. I can't wait!

Today was a really exciting day in the Middleton-Graves household. As a member of Team Hillary I received an email last week about the first, open election meeting in Philadelphia for the Clinton campaign. As I may have mentioned before, I am a strong Hillary supporter. Nothing could stop us from hitting up that meeting today!

The headquarters were located downtown. There was a huge turnout of dozens of diverse, excited people. We all had a chance to introduce ourselves and tell why we thought Hillary would make the best President. There were news cameras in the room, so of course I had to take the opportunity to make a fool out of myself by whooping and hollering something about cleaning up the mess Bush has made. I got a good response though and it was a lot of fun.

Mayor Michael Nutter, the highly popular, newly elected mayor of Philadelphia, made a surprise appearance. When the crowd died down from it's frenzy over his presence, he delivered a nice speech announcing his support for Hillary and why he thinks she would be the best candidate. It was great to see him there.

Vote for Hillary! Especially my bloggy friends in Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island and Vermont!!!

Enjoy the video I have of today's experience - stay until the end to catch our brief appearance on the 6:30 news here in Philadelphia!

I love you all (and so does Hillary!),

Josh
