Republicans Lost South For Decades Says Analyst Ren
Washington analyst David Lawrence contends the Republican party has effectively lost the South for decades. He notes shifts since Roosevelt and Truman era civil rights debates, cites 1932 to 1952 voting changes, and argues Eisenhower's stance on states rights and later Supreme Court cases cemented the realignment. He predicts cross party independents and southern conservative leadership will shape long term policy away from a liberal welfare state.
