Ole Miss bowed to the pressure and Colonel Reb was removed as the mascot in 2003. On the otherhand, the Democrat governor in MS was replaced with a Republican one in the last election because the Democrat was cool with the flag issue being sent to the voters. I acquired one of the campaign signs Haley Barbour used (from one of his campaign headquarters) that was a confederate flag with the inscription, "Keep the flag, change the governor". It worked.
