The south didn't go solidly republican until 1994 -- and then almost
wholly for economic issues...
Or are you forgetting that George Wallace was elected Gov. of Alabama
in 1974? Or that liberal Dem Jimmy Carter swept the south in 1976?
Ditto for Clinton in 1992 and 1996?
Check the voting patterns, spanky -- you'll find that the south was
solidly Democratic at every level -- state, local, gubernatorial and
nationally, until WELL into the 90's....
And you STILL can't name any of the anti-CRA congressional Dems, other
than Thurmond, that switched parties, can you?
The always reliably fuckwitted Roselles has had a decade to do so and
he's done nothing but FAIL...
Can you do better?
I'm betting you can't.
