The GOP, a Neo-Dixiecrat Party

Proof of the neo-Dixiecrat nature of the GOP is found in the latest NBC-Wall Street Journal poll. This from a decent story by John Harwood in today's paper, "Deep Philosophical Divide Underlies the Impasse":
The survey showed 50 percent of Americans approve of Mr. Obama’s job performance. Only 29 percent expressed a positive view of the Republican Party. 
Among demographic groups, the only one viewing Mr. Boehner’s party more positively than negatively was white Southerners (by just 39 percent to 35 percent at that). More than twice as many Americans credited Mr. Obama, as compared with Republicans, with emphasizing themes of bipartisan unity.
