As far as I can tell, no. In the wave year of 2006, the South hardly moved at all. The Democrats picked up Virginia on a fluke (macaca, etc) by the narrowest of margins, that Mahoney seat and I think 2 others (?). They failed at open seat elections in Tennessee and Florida. 2004 was of course absolutely brutal for the Democrats in the South. I think they've fallen about as low as they can get there, on the bright side, but the places where they should look to expand are not really in the South, but in the West.
