Realignment elections happened when parties were big tents and when media was homogenous.

Cable news, educational polarization and demographic changes all reduce the change for a genuine realignment I think. I don't think we will see a period like 1969-1993 (where one party wins just one election in 24 years) for a while, to say nothing of the GOP dominance of 1861-1933.
