Strange! I've seen more coverage about Gov Northam, LT Gov Fairfax and Attorney General Herring

in the past two days, than I have of the more than 20 sexual assault and sexual harassment claims involving Donnie Short Fingers in that past two years.

That's "curious" isn't it?

In most cases, it's all about the money, especially in the corporate world.

where as we are trying to discuss Northam, Fairfax and Herring.

If you want, try a poll to see if there is much in the way of disagreement on Trump.

and calling for his resignation when their people pose with confederate flags and are supporting white supremacists. They are racists and sex abusers but we bow to pressure and are the ones that fold quickly.

Forget Fox. They're beyond the pale, and in any sane, civilized society it would be against the law to disseminate false news.

But the major networks - they're not much better.

It's a tough job, but our Democratic candidates have to get their message out there, and they are doing a fine job so far on the campaign trail. Just got to stick with it!

But people voted for him anyway. None of these issues in VA were known by most voters before the election.

But damn if they aren't going to keep trying. Bring up Donnie's numbers (saying how great he looked at the SOTU), while spending days and days on Democrats Behaving Badly. Hoping with each new dedicated hit piece, dragging these out for a week, with a few chosen D speaking guests with ties to Israel to help on Rep. Omar daring to criticize the relationship with Israel, and critics that can go after these three, they can get the race numbers closer. Its a big task, but these news corps have never shied away from a challenge. I am just amazed and saddened at the continuing naivety and gullibility of our leaders who help the msm with their task.

If Northam is in that photo or not sooner or later. Someone knows who those 2 people in that photo really are. The media will find out. Since no one has come forward yet I'm thinking Northam is telling the truth because if he was lying someone would've already came forward and claimed one of them is him in the photo. There is also the problem of who in their right mind would want to admit being in that photo but someone should know other than the people in the photo.
