Johnson of Texas.  Finally signed into law by Pres. Johnson, who
remarked afterword that he just gave the south to the republicans,
which in fact was true as southern bigots felt betrayed by the
democrats who championed civil rights and began switching in droves to
the republican party
There could be some inkling of truth to this , that some southern bigots felt betrayed by the democratic party for introducing civil rights legislation, however, the south remained strong and true to the democratic party  until Jimmy Carter ran his second term. That is when the South made a strong shift to the republican party. It had nothing to do with civil rights but extreme liberalism and a pussy that wouldn't stand up to the Iranians.
