Miller was the last of the kind of democrats that used to control the “Solid South” when that meant solidly democratic. All the others have died out, many of them switched to the Republican party long ago with Strom Thurmond being one of the first. In those days the GOP was considered the “libeal” party.

So, you're saying that William McKinley and Calvin Coolidge were liberals?

Are you saying that anything other than the Calhounian "compact" theory is liberal?

No, I am saying that in the days when the term “Solid South” referred to the southern states voting reliably for democrats the Republicans were considered to be the liberal party by people in those Southern states, nothing more, nothing less. Of course liberal, in those days, had nothing to do with the current madness of global warming propaganda, gays openly serving in the military, Obamacare, abortion etc. both parties would have been aghast at what liberal means today.

You could be a devotee of enlightened despotism a la Thomas Hobbes, in which case you would be "conservative" in the sense that Jefferson and Voltaire understood it. Hobbes didn't believe in compacts, but in divine-right absolutism.

You're just itching to call that guy a "slaver" and a "raciss", aren't you?

Boo, hiss on Southerners! Ick hiss nasty die die die! ;)
