It's a fact that the inroads the Republican party made in the South in the 20th century is attributable to racial prejudice/hatred/fear. I initially thought W. was going to make significant attempts to curtail this during his term, and maybe turn the GOP into a more moderate force, but obviously he isn't interested/can't/won't.
