You're the one lying about this, Andy.

This routine of yours is pitiful.

You will never, ever address this because you're a pussy.

President Lyndon B. Johnson, although a southern Democrat himself, signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965. This led to heavy opposition from both Southern Democrats and Southern Republicans. Subsequent to the passage of civil rights legislation, many White southerners switched to the Republican Party at the national level. Many scholars have said that Southern whites shifted to the Republican Party due to racial conservatism.^[2][3][4] Many continued to vote for Democrats at the state and local levels, especially before the Republican Revolution of 1994.

I might just post this anytime concha shows up.

concha will never, ever address this.

The number of times concha has quote-responded to the following posts?

Zero point zero.

It changed practically over night.

Again, a statement of fact that makes concha unconformable. 

1964 - Democrats still win many southern states

1968 - Wallace splits the vote, Democrats only win Johnson's home state

1972 - Democrats practically never win again except if a Southernern is on the ticket

Remember, everybody. This *never* happened!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy

In American politics, the Southern strategy was a Republican Party electoral strategy to increase political support among white voters in the South by appealing to racism against African Americans.^[1][2][3] As the civil rights movement and dismantling of Jim Crow laws in the 1950s and 1960s visibly deepened existing racial tensions in much of the Southern United States, Republican politicians such as presidential candidate Richard Nixon and Senator Barry Goldwater developed strategies that successfully contributed to the political realignment of many white, conservative voters in the South who had traditionally supported the Democratic Party rather than the Republican Party. It also helped to push the Republican Party much more to the right.^[4]

In 2005, Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman formally apologized to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) for exploiting racial polarization to win elections and ignoring the black vote.^[13][14]

Richard Nixon's chief political strategist Kevin Phillips said:

"From now on, the Republicans are never going to get more than 10 to 20 percent of the Negro vote and they don't need any more than that... but Republicans would be shortsighted if they weakened enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That's where the votes are. Without that prodding from the blacks, the whites will backslide into their old comfortable arrangement with the local Democrats.^[1]"

Phillips wasn’t deterred. He argued that Wallace’s independent run, like the Dixiecrat campaign before it, was simply a “way station” in the migration of white southern conservatives. They had left the Democrats for good and would soon join the Republicans. “We’ll get two-thirds to three-fourths of the Wallace vote in nineteen seventy-two,” he confidently predicted.

Andy is funny.

He gets caught lying. 

Then, instead if admitting he got caught lying, he tries to throw up chaff, changes the subject, throws himself on the floor, and expects no one to notice that he won't own up to his lies.

You lied, Andy.

Proven.

Why should anyone answer to your tantrums when you won't admit you were caught?

 

[Atticus Finch]

concha is ashamed that the modern Republican Party was formed from Jim Crow southerners.

Not ashamed enough to, you know, actually admit it.

Instead of admitting it he has decided to employ the ostrich approach.

Poor Andy.

You said the Southern Democrat pols in DC who voted against the '64 civil rights act became Republicans.  Between the Senate and House, there were well over 100 Southern Democrats who voted against that bill.

Name the ones who became Republicans.

I'll even get you started:

1. Strom Thurmond (Sen SC, Biden's pal)
2. Albert Watson (Rep SC)
3.  
4.  
5.  
6.  
7.  
8.  
9.  
10.  
11.  
12.  
13.  
14.  
15.  
16.  
17.  
18.  
19.  
20.  
21.  
22.  
23.  
24.   
25.  
26.  
27.  
28.  
29.  
30.  

 

Tell you what. Just get to 30, Andy. Only 28 left.

Go.

Poor Andy also said that due to the big switch of 1964 (that never happened), the Republicans took over control of the South from that point.

Here are US House of Representatives elections every decade from 1964 until 1994.

Pictures make things easy. In which year do Republicans take over the South?

 

1964:

 

1974:

 

1984:

 

1994:

 

 

Let's give Andy a moment to answer. He's probably working hard on the list of Dixiecrats he claims changed over to the Republican Party in the mid-60s.. He'll finish it... well... never. Because he lied. 

 

[concha]

 

Bump to see how Andy is progressing with the list.

Any update, Andy?
