The trouble with that is, everybody in the South was still a Democrat back then, although they were very conservative. The grandkids of those folks have figured out that they can't vote Democrat anymore and retain their conservative values. It took awhile. My Dad fought in WWII and he and Mom voted Democrat for a long time. Both conservative Southern Democrats. By the last ten years of his life he was voting Republican because he knew, even in his eighties. I don't know about Mom because she was always stubborn and then she got Alzheimer's. She certainly didn't go for what modern Democrats stand for though. I know enough about the old folks and Texas that this was heavily in play when Johnson got elected. Despite a lot of the shixt he pulled, most still didn't see him as liberal.

Combine this with the outright cheating of the Dem machine and you've got big problems.
