In the 1960s if you argued in favor of the Tenth Amendment you were a racist. If you favored law and order (law'n order) you were a racist.
Back then liberals and Rockefeller Republicans all agreed that the people in the emerging modern conservative movement were racists, "purveyors of hate" and were the cause of all the violence in America. In fact the "climate of hate and violence" inspired Lee Harvey Oswald to assassinate JFK, screamed the liberals. Poor things
.. it's the same old tune. A generation has passed and still they got nothing.

I cannot find the source but I do remember reading that Robert Bork had pretty much said that the Tenth Amendment had been so thoroughly trashed that it was no longer in play.
I did another cursory search and I did find this "Robert Bork, [has] explicitly written off the Tenth Amendment and the doctrine of enumerated powers, initially the pride and glory of the Constitution's defenders, as dead letters . . . ."
