"Dems Won't Win The South Even If They Have Robert E. Lee on the ticket"
Advertisements [?]
A quote from Jack Cafferty this morning on CNN.

My question is:

Why have we given up on the South and why does the GOP believe it is invincible there?

Is it the GOP/southern good old boy racist thing? I know that the south turned against the Democratic Party after the Civil Rights Legislation was passed but that was 30 years ago.

Are any states in the south winnable?
