I hope he’s 100% right, but I think he is way too overconfident.

When LBJ rolled to a landslide victory over Goldwater in 1964 some said, "This is the demise of the Republican Party". The same was said about the Democratic Party in 1972 with Nixon's landslide victory over McGovern, and in 1984, after Reagan won in a landslide over Mondale. The same was said about the GOP by James Carville after Obama's victory in 2008. He said that the GOP would be the minority party for the next 40 years. Well, in two years the GOP pulled off a landslide, of sorts, in the mid-term elections. These predictions are always pre-mature. Both the GOP and the DemocRATS will be around until the end of time.
