Yellow Dog Democrats

[Lumpy 1]

We have an abundance at the USMB it seems...


The reference, "yellow dog Democrat," is "an unswerving party loyalist" according to political lexicologist William Safire. Although not simply a yellow canine but the moniker alludes to a "cur" or a mongrel. Thus, the title references a surly or cowardly fellow. But the term never was considered any kind of stock pejorative.

The name caught on in the South and was used as a compliment. First used by party loyalists after Sen. Tom Heflin (D-Ala.) refused to support his fellow Democrat Al Smith, Governor of New York, in the 1928 presidential election. Instead Sen. Heflin supported Herbert Hoover's candidacy. Southern Democrats disgusted by Sen. Helflin's decision observed that they would "vote for a yellow dog if he ran on the Democratic ticket." Thus, a "yellow dog Democrat" was was adopted as the proud slogan of the staunch party loyalist as it was said that a Southern voter would vote for a mangy yellow dog before he/she would vote for a Republican.

An interesting example since the DP has seen several revolts in its ranks, especially in Presidential election times, and always from the South --

1948: Strom Thurmond and fellow travellers walked out of the convention after hearing a bit too much about "civil rights" for their tastes and created a "Dixiecrat" party (which won several Southern States and very nearly cost the D candidate the election)...

1968/1972 George Wallace did pretty much the same thing...

1928 (example above) in an era of racism and influence by the Ku Klux Klan who disrupted that years convention (because Al Smith was a Catholic)..

--- and of course 1860, when the South disrupted the DP convention so hard it had to be closed down and rescheduled, then ran not just one but two third/fourth parties, ensuring that eventual Democratic candidate Douglas got no electoral votes in the South at all...

All this followed by the migration of the South to the Republican party after a century-long boycott during which the rest of the time the South was in effect a one-party Democrat State, during which if you ran for office you had two choices, those being you either ran as a Democrat, or you lost.

Ironically then, taken as a whole the South has historically been both the most AND the least "loyal" to the party.

Thanks but my spirit is so generous I figured I'd dress up your thread here and offer it an air of legitimacy by noting the ironies therein.

That doesn't even make sense.
Number one, West Virginia cannot in any way be called the "Deep South".
Number two, Byrd quit that thing before he ever even ran for office. In the 1940s.

Summa y'all treat history books like a giant Anagram. Just rearrange the letters to say whatever you want.

West Virginia is as "deep south" as alabama or mississippi. Byrd was a KKK grand wizard and a DEMOCRAT. Sorry, but you are not allowed to change or lie about history

At least former KKK'r Byrd helped pass programs that helped the least among us. The vicious cocksuckers in the republican party will go after those programs with a meat cleaver.

Uh -- no he was not. He hadn't even started running for office back then. Look it up.

And if you think WV is "Deep South" you must be living in the Yukon. It's whole existence as a state is a result of a break FROM the South, and that was Virginia -- nowhere near "deep".

Sorry, I have a bi-latitudinal background; I'm thoroughly familiar with both the North AND the Deep South (which is where my mother and all my relatives come from) and have been since earliest childhood. You're not about to snow me.

How can W. Va be the deep south when it came into existence by choosing not to go with the confederacy?

--- and it lies northwest of the northernmost state in that Confederacy...

Let's face it-- there's no way you can be in the "Deep South" when you share a border with Ohio.
