Those deep south yokels celebrate Democrats of old, honor their statues, and wave their flag. When the Democrat party abandoned their racism, they started voting republican. Jim Crow had to be ripped out of their hands.
What year was that?

Dixiecrat | political party, United States
You ignorant clowns on the right need to read some history, and stop reading PoliticalChic's fake history and her(?) sources from the Ministry of Truth.
Ignorance is not strength, follow these rules:
Learn from the Past
Live in the Present
Plan for the Future.
You are such a fool: they were Dixiecrats......not Dixiecans.
And like Wallace, went right back to voting Democrat.
9. “…if you take race out of the picture, it’s likely that white Southerners would have switched parties earlier and in greater numbers. “
Unable to comprehend that Southern Americans are not the racists that the Democrats are, they had to find some explanation for their ancient base, the South, turning to vote Republican. Sooo….they claimed that Nixon campaigned as a racist to gain the Deep South, to win over the Dixiecrats and segregationists to the Republican fold.
Of course, problem #1 is that the Democrats cannot provide a single example of an explicitly racist pitch in the campaign. There never was one.
“The two biggest issues in the 1968 campaign were the Vietnam War…and the anti-war movement….
Nixon campaigned on a strong anti-communist, law and order platform. While embracing the welfare state- Nixon was no conservative on domestic issues- he also railed against what he termed ‘the excesses of bleeding heart liberalism.’”
"Death Of A Nation,” Dinesh D’Souza, p. 203
”Liberal neurotic obsession with this apocryphal notion- (that Southern Strategy) it’s been cited hundreds of times in the NYTimes- is supposed to explain why Democrats can’t get nice churchgoing, patriotic southerners to vote for the party of antiwar protesters, abortion, the ACLU and gay marriage.
They tell themselves it’s because they won’t stoop to pander to a bunch of racists. This slander should probably be the first clue as to why southerners don’t like them.
The central premise of this folklore is that anyone who votes Republican is a racist. Pretty sophisticated thinking.”
Coulter, Mugged
This was Nixon’s “silent majority,” the ordinary Americans whom Nixon said worked hard and played by the rules and didn’t complain or set fire to anything and, precisely for this reason, had been ignored and even reviled by the Democratic Party.”
The Switch That Never Happened: How the South Really Went GOP - American Greatness
Soooo....what happened to the Southern voter?
They behaved as good Americans, refused to support racist Democrats, and the racist voters aged out....and died.
Rectitude and Republicans won out.
Of course, you're still a racist.....er, Democrat, huh?
LMFAO I read his link all they could name was One Dixie who switched party's not the other Two.
.
Democrat......don' need no stinkin' facts!
Exactly, they are so ashamed and embarrassed of their own party and it's evil past.
