I've always felt it will die right along with the social conservative movement that will collapse in the next decade so I'll agree with the premise of the article. The United States is slowly but surely changing its mindset from a moralistic religious one to a more rational, tolerant one in the mold of Europe. This is evident in the election of Obama, the fewer number of people recognizing themselves as Christians, the polls on gay marriage becoming increasingly in favor of it (despite the prop 8 vote and the other votes banning gay marriage, the polls weren't nearly as lopsided as they would have been 10-15 years ago).
It might not happen in a decade, but it'll happen. That or the US economy will collapse bringing about some sort of fascist regime.
