The two parties used to be one: Conservative, but they gradually developed their own unique and different views on things, thus, creating two split sides of a party of which, they generally agreeed to be split into two: Liberal Democrats and Conservatives.

Is The daily Beast liberal or conservative?

One View No matter the alleged political affiliations of its founders, the Daily Beast features identified conservative writers over identified liberals at a rate of 3-1 (maybe more; the political leanings of sports and celebrity writers are largely unknown). Although the Daily Beast portrays itself as centrist, you'll find a heavy concentration of right-leaning Yale, DoD, WSJ, National Review and Weekly Standard alumni in the contributing pool. Check the conservative bona fides of Christopher Buckley, Michael Moynihan, David Frum, Meghan McCain, Les Gelb, Mark McKinnon, John Avlon, Lucinda Franks, Bruce Riedel, Lloyd Grove, Tunku Varadarajan, James Kirchick. Peter Beinart and Reza Aslan are two of only a few identified regulars. Scribnia describes Daily Beast as "A news publication that sifts, sorts and curates information with a conservative twist." Many rightwing websites consider Daily Beast liberal, but that may be due to a difference in definition of terms. Another View "Conservative" - balderdash. The "Daily Beast" is decidedly liberal - founded by arch-liberal Tina Brown, former editor of liberal publications The New Yorker, Vanity Fair and Talk. Daily Beast merged with Newsweek, by far the most liberal of the three main American weekly news magazine. Daily Beast is liberal - not in rational dispute.

Was the south conservative or liberal during the civil war?

The South held the views of the British abolitionists of slavery emancipation. To suggest that the Confederacy was a British plot only implies that the South was conservative at that time. But, the American Revolutionary War defending against the tyrannical Kingdom of Great Britain helps us understand it better. The claim that the North, during the civil war, was liberal does not hold water since the North, during the revolutionary war was primarily against large government. Eventually, the secession, the unionizing of the colonies and creating individual state government, and the power of the people coming together to overthrow an oppressive government, the British, would prove the North had the conservative values of modern day Republicans.
