Future of the GOP

[BYUmormon]

 I believe that after all the 20 year olds of 2012 have died the Republicans will not win another presidential election for 50-60 years at least. I believe this because of the decline of Christianity and moral values. However, a new party could arise that believes in the economics of the Republican party, and the social values of the Democrats(you do not have to agree with this to agree with the theory). What is your opinion?

No, I don't agree.

My theory:

GOP loses in 2012, and in 2016.
* Becomes Minor Party by 2020.
* By 2035 GOP collapses


or

GOP loses in 2012, wins big in 2016.

          Actually I think you agree with me. The theory is that after the 20 year olds of 2012 have all died the GOP will not win a presidential election for a long time, which I believe you agree with me on. I will try to make it more clear that when I say "However, a new party could arise that believes in the economics of the Republican party, and the social values of the Democrats." I don't mean that you have to agree with that, as it is not part of the main theory.

Republicans control a House of Congress. They're a major party and aren't going anywhere anytime soon. It's perfectly possible that they'll survive but be locked out of the presidency for 12 years or even more. Remember in 2005 Democrats were about to die off?

      well the 20 year olds of 2012 wont all be dead any time soon, and they don't have to die off, as long as they don't win another presidential election for about 55 years after all the 20 year olds of 2012 die off. It is a bit far to predict-thats why it is only a theory.

Then why don't you agree with me? you said that you think that the Republicans are shrinking and will have to get replaced. Why doesn't anyone who says they agree with me agree with me?!

Well I wouldn't even vote for the conservatives if they changed they're values to those of the Democrats. They would basically be democrats who have the same economic views as the 2012 conservatives, and I would hate them almost as much as Democrats.
