Start by throwing the Southern Poverty Law Center under the bus. You'd need a Democratic party that at least paid lip-service to cultural considerations in the state. You'd have to chip away at Alabama's Republican base rather than expect a new base to migrate/out-breed the current base as is currently the dream. Mark Warner in VA was good at lip-service, better than most Republicans, which is funny because Warner was a carpet-bagging yankee businessman at first. Knock off a big office as a result of a scandal with a culturally-inoffensive Dem. Grow from there. And stop referring to everyone in the state (at least everyone who disagrees on policy) racist. With the racial cleavages in southern states, demagoging race arbitrarily (like Dees and Potok and the rest of the SPLC) won't do you any favors. If you get one seat back, get that politician to stump for another. Slow growth.
