Politicians say whatever wins them votes.. and don’t aim to keep any promise. Trump says what needs to be said, and does what he promised... they can’t compete with truth.

And when northam refuses, like he already has, these demo_rats will stop and never revisit it. northam will stay and even better, be reelected by the same people who said he should resign.

And that is how evil and full of double standards leftists (i.e. democrats) are.

He won’t retire, dims have NO shame.

I hope he stays to torment those who voted for this, there is no other word, RACIST. The old Alinsky method of accusing opposition of what you are doing.

This corrupt man accused Ed Gillespie...ED GILLESPIE...of being a racist. Stupid Virginians believed him.

Murphy of New Jersey is equally bad, if not worse than Northam.

Stop drawing attention to yourself, Murph.

He’s the face of the Democrat Party. Like I told someone who was trying to link MAGA hats to KKK hoods, if you want genuine KKK garb, all you have to do is look in the closet of a southern Democrat.

Natham’s FIRST AMENDMENT FREE SPEECH

“Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech”

The Great Governor Ralph Natham has every right to express himself against the hostility of the mob.

Natham has every right to run for President of the United States.

I defend Natham’s freedom of speech even against the Free Republic’s hostile mob.

(hee he he, chuckle chuckle)

If the party and the media knew about the pic and kept Northam’s secret, and Northam can prove it, Northam will not go quietly without a very big bribe....

“Hm. KKK dragon Bob Byrd dies unscathed, but Northam is guilty while being a stupid student. The definition of dem is daily double standard.”

Yeah, but just think of the cost to West Virginia if they “de-deified” “Sheets” Byrd. I mean every effing building in the state has that old racist ba$tard’s name on it! Just think about all the signage that would have to be replaced. WV would really pump up their employment numbers!

If the Dems lose the Abortion issue the party is over and the mask completely drops.With 85% of people against late term abortion they had to change the narrative. Northam was their latest fall guy.

I heard the Democrats had the photo since October. They were blackmailing him. That is how they roll. I wonder what Terry McCauliffe has been holding on Comey, McCabe Etc. It is the Clinton MO.

2020 presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris of California remarked the "stain of racism" has "no place in the "halls of government".

Then let's get rid of the Congressional Black Caucus, one of the more official racist associations in the US.

We desperately need Northam to be leading VA rats in the legislative election this November. Having a Black Governor that could gin up Black turnout would be bad.

Apparently the last VA Governor to resign was Whig Thomas W. Gilmer, who quit after winning a seat in US House. Other than the removal of the Confederate Governor at the end of the Civil War and following Reconstruction era military Governors, there has not been any irregular succession since, the single terms being a big reason for this, though they really beat the odds with no Governor dying.

Larry Sabato says every other state had had a Governor die or resign during this time and I haven’t checked but I’m sure he’s right.

If Fairfax succeeds he’d be able to run for reelection as Governor in 2021. This scandal could end up helping the rats in the long term. Makes me think it was rats who leaked this photo immediately after Northam damaged himself with that infanticide endorsement to pave the way for the new Black Governor, who if he doesn’t fall on his face could be a 2024 rat Pres candidate. Dems scandals that don’t actually hurt the dems really piss me off. This could end up being nothing to laugh about or celebrate for VA Republicans.

A vacancy in the office of LT Gov would apparently be filled by special special, possibly as late as this November. There was one in Nov 1971 when the LT Governor had passed away during the summer, the office staying vacant for months.

Now where was the capital of the pesky Rebs?
What political party were they?
Liked owning slaves did they?

Since VA has gone blue, perhaps “Option E” should initially be rolled out there.
They obviously forget their history.

Your reasoning is exactly why Northam is having all of his Dem support pulled. Even Planned Parenthood has called for him to resign .... Fairfax is as extreme as Northam on the baby killing so there’s no loss for PP there (well, maybe some moolah down the toilet, but they seem to have plenty to throw around).

My only hope is that Eric Holder friend, baby killer, gun grabbing Fairfax will be extreme/offensive enough that maybe there will be an “Obama effect” (such as put Trump in the Presidency) & we’ll have a slim chance at holding the Senate, maybe (unlikely - not holding my breath) make some headway with the House of Delegates. As an incumbent, unless Fairfax is horrible enough to offend Dems (happened with Northam ... you never know in politics!), he’ll be elected for his own term after finishing out Northam’s.

It all STINKS, pure and simple. From Northam/Dems throwing the race/bigotry card all over the Commonwealth during the campaign, winning, now this mess, and the aftermath.
