why didn't ike do better in the deep south?

adlai was a liberal intellectual. Ike was a war hero from modest, non-east coast roots.

It wasn’t the first time Southerners happily voted for a liberal intellectual over a Northern (moderately) conservative Republican.
A "Yankee" Republican party was never going to be as strong in the Deep South as the GOP is today.
