Republicans were absolutely hated in the South until at least the 1960s. Goldwater was really the first one they liked at all. Even a popular leader like Eisenhower wasn't enough to power the Republican vote.

In the Deep South I would agree, but in terms of the South as a whole Ike made tremendous headway in the peripheral and Outer South states. VA, TN, TX, and FL come to mind for instance.
