Friday - yes, it is him.
Saturday - no, it isn't.
Refreshing that his first impulse was to apologise. Then he started thinking.
I wish others would apologize first.
Hmmmm...really? Do you think he might be regretting apologizing before "realizing" it wasn't even him?

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam has told a source he now believes it is not him in a racist yearbook photo and that he has no recollection of taking the photo, according a top Virginia Democratic source who spoke to the governor on Saturday.
Northam told the source he was in touch with some of his former Eastern Virginia Medical School colleagues, who said they believed many of the pictures in the yearbook were mixed up. Northam did not recall the picture being taken, he told the source, and said he was not involved in the production of the yearbook.
Thank you. I tried googling but just couldn’t find it.

If you believe someone who wore black face/KKk costume should never be able to be a governor, then you also believe people should never get second chances.
Or redemption.
I don’t think it fits with our Democratic Party platform/ we believe in second chances if they’ve proven themselves.
I believe that if Northam did this and has since evolved and grown as a person, then that is great for him...personally. I'm glad to see that happen, and I believe it happens all the time.
Politically, though? That's a whole different thing. He has lost the trust of those he leads, and that is political death.

Nope. We believe that if you’ve acted in despicably awful, racist ways in the past, you should apologize and make these actions clear BEFORE you run or take office. Let the voters decide for themselves if they’re ok with it. By hiding these things and apologizing only after you’ve found out, it’s made pretty clear that you are not a leader or decent human being.

That’s the whole point of white supremacy. We empathize with whites and give them many chances. We don’t automatically give that same second chance to people of color.

Whites are racist, period. But the Dems have more whites who actively try to end racism.

His "horrific" comments earlier this week were the cause of this. Speak for abortion, even a doomed bill, and you will go down.
Pro-life plays to win. And they are winning.
Yes
Men really need to leave the abortion discussion to women. They have zero right to the conversation.
Is that what you're saying to Tran's supporters? Or to those calling for her resignation?
I haven’t followed that whole story. I am saying men need to shut their mouths about abortion until they are able to carry and birth a baby. They have zero experience on the subject and therefore need to shut up.

Not racism but patronizing. If the Dems didn’t pander to their African American constituents, they could win few races in blue states.
White supremacists aren’t infiltrating the Dens, unlike the GOP. Racism is Southern Pride. Southerners are largely racists independent of party.
Just stop. Enough with the "who has the most racists" contest. It is old.
It isn’t a contest. The HOP are clear winners!
