I wouldn't go as far to say that 1980-1992 was Republican "domination", you have to remember that the Dems had the Congress.
What you see, actually, beginning in 1980 (some would argue 1968) is political dealignment. Americans prefer divided government over one-party rule, which has been the norm for most of American history. Americans are becoming very skeptical of government and are taking advantage of the "seperation of powers" to illustrate that fact.
