don't know where you are from, but I grew up and spent a large portion of my life in the Mississippi Delta. in towns with populations of about 6,000. About as southern redneck as you get back then. Good ole boys never refered to the KKK in any place I was, but instead refered to being part of the "good ole boys" club. usually rednecks, possibly racist, more than likely drove a big jacked up 4X4 with super swampers on it. These days when I hear it, it generally refers to anybody that has a higher level position in politics or some such that got there due to who they know rather than what they know.
Well I'm not from the US but I have visited once (before having to comb your pubic hair for the camera) and from my years of television watching I call bullshit. Good Ole Boys drive Orange Chargers, wear overly tight jeans, have a Moonshine making Uncle and a ridiculously good looking cousing in extra short jean shorts. They're never meaning no harm, beats all you ever saw, been in trouble with the law since the day they were born.
