Should point out that it was an informal ad hoc coalition. It had no formal organization. Also, many conservative Democrats, like Strom Thurmond and John Connally, moved to the Republicans, and some conservative southern Democrats remain in the party. --The Four Deuces (talk) 09:29, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A defeat for the coalition?

"Together with Northeast Republicans"?

This is wrong. The conservatives in the republican party were just as for the civil rights acts as anyone. This was a major issue that divided the 'conservative coalition'. Southern Democrats were for segregation, many (not all) conservative republicans were for desegregation. Robert Taft himself was for civil rights.

Grammar

I know it's a current fad, in some circles, to use 'Democrat' as an adjective (i.e "Democrat Party"), but this is improper grammar. I took the liberty of fixing these instances. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RobM22 (talk • contribs) 05:54, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
