This is the part I believe.

VA Democrats have proven they care more about their power than their principals...

The loud calls for resignations for the Governor and AG due to their black-face incidents have died out to almost nothing since the Lt Governor looks like he’s going to tank with two women accusing him of sexual assaults...

If all three were removed from office, a Republican would be next in line for the Governors seat...

Suddenly, the black face incidents have all but fallen from the Democrats radar...after all, the Attorney General is considered one of the front runners for Governor in the next election (in VA, you can only serve one term as governor)...

Why do Democrats hate Virginia and America???

Blacks in Virginia are less likely than whites to think Northram should step down (not that surprising to me, honestly). Democrats should think carefully about race pandering.

Yes I saw that and, frankly, it increases my faith in Blacks in Virginia. I'm actually encouraged by that response.

And I think Northam is now covered. If the overwhelming majority of Blacks in Virginia don't want him to resign over that picture the Whites that want him to resign need to just shut up.

The response has more to do with the D behind his name than anything else, John.

If he were a Republican the numbers would be vastly different and you know it.

There's a word for that poll... it uses terminology associated with the slaves who supported the plantation owner.

US Rep Don Byers admitted today on CBS (Face The Nation) that the Dems are still pushing the Governor to resign, and they expect the Lt Gov to resign or have charges filed against him by the legislature...but they won’t go after the AG for his black-face incident because that would put a Republican in the Governors seat...

I'm still encouraged by it. For whatever the reason is most of them are not going along with the "OMG BLACKFACE" thing.

For now, Northam is hanging in there, thumbing his nose at the folks howling for his resignation.

There’s a very good seafood restaurant in his home town on the Eastern Shore of VA: the Great Machipongo Clam Shack. Mrs. Ivy and I frequently dine there on our way to visit Sprig Ivy in Hampton. Haven’t seen any blackface or Klan robes yet. Plenty of black customers, too.

Northam painted his election opponent as a racist

So as much as I think he shouldn’t resign, I’m enjoying the karmic bukkake

I have already been seeing Black talking heads saying that the real racists are the Republicans because of what they have been doing. The general idea is that doing things like trying to disenfranchise Black voters is a lot worse than wearing Blackface 30 something years ago.

And I basically agree with that. I mean, really, we all know Republicans have been trying to suppress the Black vote where ever they can. It makes sense that Black people who think about that would be WAY more offended by that than they'd be by a guy putting Blackface makeup on for a party over 30 years ago when he was 25 years old.
