Virginia's Villan

The state of Virginia is in a state of chaos.   The top three Democrats in the state are under fire for things in their pasts, and all three refuse to resign.
Virginia Governor Ralph Northam is in trouble because a photo in his college yearbook shows what appears to be him in blackface.   At first, Northam apologized and said it was inappropriate and offensive.  He later backtracked and said it's not even him in the photo.  It has sparked outrage among both Democrats and Republicans, and many have called for Northam to resign.  So far, he has refused.
Forget about the yearbook photo!  Northam has done something much worse.  About a week before the blackface controversy, he made some barbaric comments in a radio interview in support of late-term abortions.  He backed a proposed bill that would allow a woman to get an abortion right up to the birth of the baby.  Northam went even further, saying a woman and her doctor could make the decision to take the baby's life AFTER the child is born. 
Northam actually endorsed infanticide!  THAT's the reason he should resign!  Where was the outrage over these comments?  There was no outage.  Republicans and other Democrats should have demanded his resignation.  Instead, they were silent.  It's like his comments about killing babies were no big deal.
For that reason alone, Ralph Northam should resign!
