Ralph Northam mulls leaving Democratic Party to hold onto governor's seat

Embattled Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam is toying with the idea of leaving the Democratic Party and holding onto his position by becoming an Independent.

Switching parties could be a way for Northam to hang on, after a picture of his medical school yearbook page was shown to include a photo of someone dressed in blackface, and another person dressed in a Ku Klux Klan robe. The picture prompted several prominent Democrats tosay he needs to step down, but the Washington Post reported that Northam has at least thought about a party switch as a way of dodging those complaints.

The Post said he has been isolated from his political allies and state and national party since the picture emerged.

The problem is not the picture the problem is that he thinks it is ok for a baby to be born and then have it's spinal cord cut because the mother doesn't want the child

The yearbook photo is NOTHING compared to his lobbying for infanticide. Late term abortion is horrific. We can all forgive a college costume party but murder can't be washed off at the end of the day.
