If it is that bad then how did the 2010 election go so badly for Democrats? Obama will lose in 2012. He has to. Period.
Obama will lose in 2012

From your lips to God’s ears. I wish I was as confident of that as you.
That the GOP did so well in 2010, and that it is demographically possible for them to continue to do well for a few more election cycles does not disprove that the long-term outlook is disastrous for the GOP.
The GOP did much better with whites in 2010 than did McCain and his pathetic campaign in 2008. That is why they did so well. A notable exception was the disastrous Sharon Angle. The media and other usual suspects tried to tie her loss to Hispanics, but the truth is that new Republican governor Sandoval did about the same with latinos as Angle, but he did much better with whites, and that is why he won and she lost.
A large white turnout and Republican who can win 60% of the white vote could easily beat Obama, but who knows if either of those will happen. And then further out, winning an overwhelming majority of the white vote will not be enough. But again, the GOP hasn’t done this since the 80s so permanent Democratic rule will probably arrive sooner rather than later.
