In a certain way, this feels a bit too much like the Emerging Democratic Majority stuff from the 2000's.  However, I do think it's worth analyzing:

Normally, what happens is that the party on the wrong end of a demographic shift eventually adapts its platform to appeal to different voters and things revert back to nearly 50/50 in the long run.  Republicans essentially pulled that off in 2016 by shifting their economic platform to reach more of the Northern working class.  My main takeaway would be that the current Dem platform is just too socially liberal for a world in which the South gains that much influence and I would expect them to adjust accordingly. 

Maybe they also get Florida back if social security cuts become issue #1 in 2030's elections?  Or maybe they abandon Florida to take the "youth" side of that debate?
