Where did anyone ever get the idea that Lynyrd Skynyrd or any other rock band from that era was conservative? Because they were from the South? Because they displayed the Confederate naval jack?

As an afterthought (and as something that's probably going to get me in trouble), I must say that I sometimes get confused when conservatives attack the Democrat party but love the South. The South was solid Democrat until a few decades ago. They were the Blacks of their era, voting Democrat 100% of the time because they couldn't afford to dilute their influence by splitting their vote between two parties. Sound familiar? Something like "One people; one voice; one vote?"
