David Colburn reveals how Florida gradually abandoned the traditions of race and personality that linked it to the Democratic Party. The book focuses particularly on the population growth and chaotic gubernatorial politics that altered the state from 1940, when it was a sleepy impoverished southern outpost, to the present and the emergence of a dominant Republican Party. 606 $aPolitical culture$zFlorida$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPolitical culture$zFlorida$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aPolitical parties$zFlorida 606 $aPoliticians$zFlorida 607 $aFlorida$xEthnic relations$xPolitical aspects 607 $aFlorida$xPolitics and government$y1865-1950 607 $aFlorida$xPolitics and government$y1951- 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical parties 615 0$aPoliticians 676 $a975.9 700 $aColburn$b David R$01619864 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825245703321 996 $aFrom yellow dog democrats to red state republicans$93952340 997 $aUNINA
