(FOOD FIGHT!): Fairfax suggests Gov. Northam could be behind leaked sexual assault allegation - Fox News

I wonder what the Dim Party Management thinks about their little ploy of going back years (-heh- clear back to high school) raking through people’s, lives trying to find ANYTHING, real or imagined, they can use to ruin a career and/or life. Did they think their little smear tactics wouldn’t be used against them?

Fairfax suggests Gov. Northam could be behind leaked sexual assault allegation - Fox News

Virginia Democratic Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax on Monday, when asked by a reporter, did not rule out the possibility that embattled Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam could be secretly pushing a newly revealed sexual assault allegation against Fairfax to derail his possible ascension to the governorship.

And in a separate, fiery statement late Sunday, Fairfax accused The Washington Post of "smearing an elected official," reiterated that the sexual assault allegation against him is "false," and seemingly threatened to sue the paper for rebuking his earlier characterization of the evidence surrounding the episode.

Oh my. Tom Perez said Northam was a sign of things to come.

DNC Chair: Virginia Is 'Blueprint' For New Democratic Party

Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez heralded Democrat Ralph Northam’s win in Virginia as “a blueprint for what we’re doing everywhere.”

“This is a really important night, and it’s not only an important night for Virginia, but it’s a blueprint for what we’re doing everywhere which is competing in every zip code, and telling our story,” he told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes.

The DNC has been embroiled in scandal after a new book by former interim chair highlighted a fundraising deal between the Clinton campaign and the Committee well before she’d won the nomination, earning further calls of a “rigged” election by the president.

“The new DNC demonstrated its commitment to organizing for our values,” Perez said in a statement emailed to reporters minutes later. “Tonight’s success is just the beginning."

Let's sit back and watch the democrats eat their own. Harris too was pleased when Northam won, but then Obama, Hillary, Biden and a few other heavyweights campaigned hard for him. Have any of them been saying that he has to step down? If not then why is his seat so important to democrats? Did any of them campaign for any other democrat?

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

Forward two steps, then backwards three
Don't turn around, you'll get dizzy
Today's newspaper--tomorrow's fish wrap.
Dim loyalty to "values" is crap

First the Camel, who has humped to please
Then the Booker with Spartacus disease
Slide forward, then a sneak back muffle
That's it: the duplicity shuffle

Why all this outrage and demands that Northam resign because he had a picture taken in which he appears to be in Klan stuff?!

He said he was sorry, that should be enough right?!

After all long serving Democrats had NO ISSUE with an ACTUAL F'KING KLANSMAN serving as a DEMOCRAT US senator!

Robert Byrd for any who don't know the barely human being I was talking about.

Why must Northam resign over a picture or two, but an actual MEMEBER of the klan is allowed to stay in office with no outrage, lasting literally until he died in office from old age.

Note: I am NOT defending Northam and think he should resign, my issue was/is that a F'KING KLANSMAN was allowed to stay with no outrage due to political convenience as WV wouldn't normally elect a Democrat!

Like I said above, so basically I'm sorry from a klansman makes it ok, but I'm sorry from someone just dressed like a klansman isn't?

How does that cut it?

over that stupid picture, whether he was in it and in which disguise, yada yada yada.

We had enough of that from Slick Willy, and Northam isn't that good at it.

@TheOtherMaven In his later years, Robert Byrd developed a close friendship with Ted Kennedy. Apparently that had something to do with his evolution away from the Klan mindset.

More like political expediency than any friendship with Kennedy.

No more believable than any other flip-flops we see due to political convience with no conviction behind it!
