Right-wing racism on the rise
#4
There are simply not enough cbelt type Republicans left to take the party back. The South threatened to take over and dominate Democrats, Democrats acquiesced to political pressure from that wing of their party for decades.

When, Missourian, Harry Truman upset the applecart by desegregating the Military the writing was on the wall. By 1963, a red neck Texan Democrat would predict "there goes the South forever".

He was right.

They morphed into your party and eventually came to own it, - lot, stock and barrel. By the time you realized that all those Northeast and Midwest old line Republicans had been branded with this RINO label and started to notice that for the most part Dems had moved right enough for many to merge with them.

The others are waiting out developments and more than willing to be called independents. How you re enroll these people will be interesting to see. Seems to me they're up for grabs and getting them back without jettisoning that Southern flank is probably not doable.

The Dixie Republicats no longer have a place at the table and it's past the time we all come forward and acknowledge that, then the blue dog Dems can become Repubs again.
