Back in 2012, Joe Biden told a black audience that Mitt Romney wanted to put them 'back in chains'. This is an incredible assertion and one has no basis in reality.

A few years later, Biden attended Romney's ideas summit and encourage Romney to run for senate. So he forgot that he previously said Romney is a racist who wants to enslave black people? Would why he encourage a white racist to run for senate.

People don't like being called racist if they aren't racist. We understand why Democrats do it. It is to increase minority turnout on election day.

Here's Northam's campaign ad against Gillipsie .

That is classic race baiting. He was trying to increase minority votes for him by being dishonest about his opponent. He and other Democrats think this is funny too so it is hilarious watching him squirm this week.
You hit the nail on the head.... I follow politics. I lived in VA for the last 25 years. I seen all the political ads during the last several VA gubernatorial races... Democrats call all the Republican candidates racists with zero credible proof...

The problem is, Republicans know this, but most Democrats do not... They think any and all White Conservatives are racists for no other reason than Democratic politicians push this narrative 24/7, 365 in one way or another...

Both. CNN doesn't like the fact that a white governor who painted his face black, is a democrat. Their narrative was that all racists are Republicans who wear red MAGA hats.

Truth is, some of the biggest racists in this country are Democrats. It's the party of slavery, jim crow, and the KKK. It founded those institutions.

I know with the dems that " crazy is the new black" but this Governor Northam seems to have taken it a little too literally.

Malicious or not, who knows................


..........................but the lack of accuracy in what is put on TV as "fact" has led me to distrust them long ago.

Geez, I would respect you more if just once in a while you didn't always take the blind partisan stance. CNN IS fake news. Anyone with a functioning brain can see that.

Lmao. The little tricks of a former news outlet turned Democratic Party arm with an agenda

Ralph Northam sure acts like a white male Republican. Northam dragged his wife to the his press conference to make us think he's heterosexual and an honorable married man who has morals. This parade was nothing but a corrupt facade of who Ralph Northam really is.

How is Ralph Northam like a Republican if he's a very liberal Democrat?
