LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE!!!!

"Democrats lost their iron grip on Dixie after spearheading the civil rights bills of the 1960s."

I don't think so! A simple fact check would have pointed out the prominent role of REPUBLICANS supporting Civil Rights. The Democrats started really losing the South when the candidates and their messengers continued to insult Southerners and the VALUES they hold.

And continuing to insinuate that the South still wishes for the old racist South is a insulting as it is ignorant.

The Democrats LOST the South because they alienated Southerners.

LOL! The Left thinks Southerners are folks like the ones in Hazzard County. Corrupt, loveable, funny, and slow-witted - like Jefferson Davis Hogg.

LOL! That was the first "blue state flag" item I caught in the article: That lie about Dems leading the "civil rights movement" in the South. The teachers here, are quite interesting. Just as Berkeley moved their "free speech" grads to my highschool in the late 60s and early 70s, those same twits are showing up to teach in NC schools. And oh my! The whining about the scores... more parents should be concerned about what is going on inside the classroom, vis a vis so-called instruction. It's how the libs took over CA schools. And bit by bit, the youths became wild and unruly. Schools blamed "families". And began designing lots and lots of programs to "teach" families. The spread of socialism and grotty liberalism.
