Better hang in there cause Demos can't afford to lose u.

Yes of course bc they ALSO did the same things, don't think it's 'bad' and anyone else of the same generation has the same baggage.

What else were they going to say?

Gil Minor, a local corporate titan and major donor to both political parties, and Tom Slater, a prominent lawyer, wanted to see the governor face-to-face as they absorbed the shocking news

a FEW VMI alums urged the Gov......there are 14,000 living VMI alums....

Unreal

That's Washington Post language for 'White Democrats want VA. govenor to stay in office.'

Could this be because 90% or Richmond’s donor class and 100% of VMI alums have history full of blackface and klan pageantry?

WaPo treads quietly around the Progressive Supremacists.

I've really got little patience for pols who conclude that the toughest, most effective course of action in a scandal us for them to stay in office. It's disingenuous and insincere. And it represents *anything* but accountability.

typical democrats

Really, there is no point in forcing him out. This attitude/behaviour runs deep, almost bred into them. Any replacement, until the next election at least, would just be an iteration of what they already have.

At least he won't have to worry about a second term, especially if he runs with a rapist Lt. Gov again.

System that created problem thinks it is just the thing to solve problem, or something

Virginia governor refers to slavery as indentured servitude while talking about lessons from blackface scandalNortham has rejected calls to resign and said 'Virginia needs someone that can heal.' Slavery is over.. Its 2019... Can we move on now. Factually, in the context in which he used it, he is not wrong. There were indentured servants in VA originally but he is wrong in the context of his description about Africans. Knowing history can be your friend and not knowing your enemy.
