StatesRights' Residual Popularity in Dixie

[Sam Spade]

Can someone tell me why StatesRights remains so popular throughout the Southeast, despite his nearly succeeding at provoking a civil war the last time he was at the helm, not to mention his attempt at making himself a sort of quasi-dictator? And why are otherwise moderate-to-liberal Democrats voting for such a far-right candidate over a moderate like Governor Dubya?

I'd vote for him if I lived in the region for one reason: His name is not Governor DUBYA. No one with a reference to Bush in their name will ever receive my vote.
