Now there may be a few people who still hold a grudge.  However, most people in the South do not and "damn Yankee" or "damnyankee" is mostly a joke aimed at people from the North.  However, at least in Texas, they don't care how you do things in New York because things are "way" different down here.

People from the South are usually considerably more maligned in the North where they are often called "hillbillys".  

When I was doing business in the small towns here in north Texas many of the people called me "the black haired Yankee".  But, that didn't stop them from doing business with me and, frankly, those "country" people were ten times as friendly and considerably more helpful than most people in Dallas and at least 100 times more friendly than those in the Chicago area where I grew up.

After 140 some odd years, I still can't fathom that these people still hold a grudge. Can't bury a hachet I guess!!!  I have travelled around the globe (courtesy of the US Navy) and if I wasn't called "American", I was called a "Yankee." Whether your from Maine or Hawaii, Alaska or Florida, YOU are a damn YANKEE!!!
 
By the way I'm from Maine. If you want to conduct this bias and prejudice crap don't do it on a party line.
