I wonder if Landslide Lyndon ever actually said “we'll have those n*ggers voting Democrat for 200 years”.

Exactly. We all know the intent and effect, but where is the direct evidence? I wouldn’t be surprised if his biographers know but hid it.

According to Ronald Kessler's book, Inside The White House (1996), Lyndon Johnson, who had a reputation for vulgarity in private conversations, explained his big switch strategy change from intimidation to entitlement to two Democrat governors aboard Air Force One, saying: "I'll have those n****rs voting Democratic for the next 200 years."

I can't swear it really happened, but there is a cited reference.
