Whatever opposition the various CRAs and the Fair Housing Act faced, it was pretty much a given that the opposition was socially "conservative" in nature.
In the end, the parties became more clearly defined rather than coalitions of liberals and conservatives like they had been before. Liberals migrated to the democrats, and conservatives to the republicans. The liberal Rs, the "Rockefeller republicans" essentially evaporated, and so have the "blue dog democrats," though they lingered for far longer and still do to some degree in fellows like Manchin.
