Didn’t he have a Lt Governor who raped a young black woman? And also “survived”?

They don’t survive they defy.

Nearly two years have passed since a Washington Free Beacon alum unearthed a photo from Northam's medical school yearbook page of an individual wearing blackface who is posing next to an individual wearing a Ku Klux Klan robe.

Did we ever learn if he was the guy in blackface or the guy in the Klan outfit?

They get to play the (D) card. Not available to Republicans.

If a Democrat does it, it’s an accident, or it’s a misjudgment, or it was certainly okay at the time, and we can’t judge it now. HOWEVER... (I’m sure you can finish the sentence.)

Thanks for the great article, and yes he’s a racist and Democrats do embrace racism it it’s one of their own. It’s crazy.

Can’t wait to see how things move along in the coming weeks. I hope that Northam gets his due justice.

I think the plaid trousers gave him away as the one in black face.

He may be alive, but will he be with God in Heaven when he dies?

Republicans need to ditch the notion that catching Democrats in scandals and hypocrisy is going to get them elected. Nor will “Brandon” and venting do the trick. Younkin’s election showed the power of well explained issues and hard hitting ads.

It should always be remembered that after the segregationist “Dixiecrat” schism from the Democrats imploded, ALL BUT ONE of the Dixiecrats (Strom Thurmond) returned to the Democrat party and remained their until their dying days.

This is a key point to note when Democrats suggest that when the South went Republican, it wasn’t because the Republicans were segregationist and racist, it was because the average person in the South *rejected* the Democrats who still supported segregation and racism.

And a TV sports analyst or TV panelist can’t make a true and innocent comment. Out the door. Career canceled.

His gesture is accidentally the same as the great Al Jolson in 1927 saying

“Mammy. Mammy.
Don’t you know me? I’m your little baby.
I’d walk a million miles for one of your smiles, my mammy.”
