After first admitting and apologizing for appearing in a racist photo in his 1984 medical school yearbook, Gov. Ralph Northam has been calling Democratic leaders saying he isn't one of the two men in the image.

Virginia Sen. Louise Lucas who represents Portsmouth said Northam called her this morning and said he wouldn’t step down.

“I’m not going to resign because it’s not me in that photo,” Lucas said, recalling what he told her.

So utterly ridiculous. How could he not “know” if he ever wore such a costume (either one), took such a photo, or had it on his personal page in his MED SCHOOL yearbook?

Impossible.

Let me summarize what everything is all about: illegal and 3rd World immigration. Once they load a state with minorities and corrupt liberals, they can dance in the streets naked (or talk about murdering babies) and get reelected. Republicans wil be blamed. Count on it.

So it isn’t him in the photo (now, supposedly, now that he’s being pushed to resign) - assuming that’s true, why would he think it was him? Did he do this sort of thing to where he would believe it was indeed himself, but now claiming this particular picture was not?

This is so bizarre.

Using the Kavanaugh standard, at a minimum Ralphie has a drinking problem.

I think he’s the guy in blackface. That is his shape of head, and the student is similar to the Gov.’s build.
He campaigned, won and is determined to keep what is his.
Some old style-GOP could learn from this.

He must be the one in the hood and is saying ‘you can’t prove it was me’!

"You are all going to see this lying ghoul stay in office so he can kill more babies while talking in a Nazi doctor monotone."

Wonder if this baby killer, Northam, is related to the Nazi Doctors, who killed babies and adults during Hitler's reign of terror?

I think it would be pretty easy to take Northam’s height and extrapolate in the pic which one is him.

Probably just a coincidence, Ralph’s grandmother’s maiden name is Byrd.

Irrelevant, VA Governor is one term only.

They can’t run for re-election.

The state constitution allows a former Gov. to run again in the future, but not for immediate re-election.

Hell, killing babies is just a side business...the dirty non-secret is that these offices are personal gold mines. In our corrupt, sick, deranged society, these @$$holes in office get unimaginably wealthy from their “service”. Every year he stays in, the richer and richer the corrupt sack of $#it gets.

"How is it 2019 and the GOP is still losing elections to Klansmen?"

Dead and still living Klansmen are still voting Democratic.

What happens if the Lt Gov takes over? Could he run again?

With Democrats, if the truth slips out, no problem. Just make up a lie, if that doesn’t work, make up a new lie, or many lies. Lies are the way to go and don’t worry if new lies contradict old lies. The only thing that this guy is not lying about is his advocacy for infanticide. Killing babies post partem has become fashionable among the Democrats and they will never criticize him for that.

If he doesn't resign, can we start accusing him of just trying to keep a black man down?

His Lieutenant Governor ...

I don't want Gov. Northam to resign.

I want him to be the BlackFace of the Democratic party.

yes, he could run again in the future, although it is difficult to imagine him winning the nomination or the election after this.
