I am fucking amazed that there are people still defending Northam after that press conference.

Was it the "Don't put too much shoe polish on your face, its hard to get off." that kept you on board?

The calls for Northam to resign are coming hot and heavy now...

from prominent VA Democrats.

Planned Parenthood has called on Ralph Northam to resign.

They played a huge role in his primary win.

Northam should and likely will resign.

I live in Virginia and see the writing on the wall.

Chuck Todd's "Help me out, I'm an idiot" act isn't an act.

He is a genuine idiot.

I don't understand why some of the federal workers don't just tap into their inheritance.

I mean, its not ideal with possible tax implications and all, but desperate times call for desperate measures, right?

Are white people that aren't racist, but not comfortable voting for a minority welcome in the party?

Are these people, perhaps, telling us that we need to nominate a, hypothetically, old white guy? In order to get their support, I mean. Asking for a friend.

Didn't have to see that piece of shit Goodlatte's name on a ballot for the first time in a long time

I am hoping we flip that seat blue today! Lines were way longer than usual at my polling place in a deeply red county....won't be sure what that means until results come in tonight. Virginia is getting a little bluer with each election.

What is the difference between having son and having a daughter? I have both.

When my son goes out, I tell him to be careful and be smart. I worry about his safe return.

When one of my daughters goes out, I am terrified. One of my daughters is taking a bus home from college for her Fall break. It is about a 5 hour bus ride. Here is what I tell her:

1. Don't talk to anyone on the bus.
2. Don't talk to anyone at the bus stop.
3. Don't leave the area immediately around the bus.
4. Don't go to the bathroom at the bus stop.
5. Make sure you phone is fully charged. Leave it on at all times.

Paranoid? Overboard? Maybe. But I won't relax until she is at home.

Trying to, in any way, equate what women face and what men face when it comes to their well being in public or private is facetious bullshit. Thats my .02.
