It might just be as simple as the demographics caught up. Replace "Catholics" or "Irish" with "Hispanic" or something today, in a state like Arizona, along with some continued White defection from the GOP. I remember seeing a quote that during the 1930s, alongside the fact that the GOP was being routed, Democrats were saying that the GOP coalition was too ethnically restrictive to survive in the future. Turns out they were right, as the GOP made HUGE inroads with Catholics of both Irish and Italian descent over the next several decades.
