What's this?

I don't think it'll fly with the Dem base

I'm not voting for Northam or Fairfax again. There will be a lot who will, but I assume there are too many like me that still do give a shit about our leaders having standards that will refuse to vote for these people. The Republicans are going to do whatever their going to do, and maybe they can survive these types of scandals, but for me, I'm not voting for these people again. They may not walk away and resign, but they aren't winning another election.
