I wouldn't go that far. I'd put this in the same camp as all the talk about permanent democrat majorities or permanent republican majorities that get talked about in 2008 or 2004.
The dems got their bench destroyed in 2010 and 2014. The GOP got their bench last destroyed in 2006 and 2008. The bench-whacking of 2006/2008 helped the dems survive in 2012 since the up and comers didn't have experience yet.
Both parties have major issues. Dems have a problem with white voters that don't live in academia havens. Republicans have a problem with minority voters.
Until either party solves the identity politics issues and adapts, we'll have a stalemate back and forth for a long time.
