Reagan won not so much because of his ideology but because voters generally thought his opponents either had no solutions or stupid solutions. In 2008 and 2012, the Republicans were the party without solutions that the voters believed in and it showed in the results. The Democratic failure in 2004 was in part due to the Democrats picking a candidate whose major issues were not seen as problems by many voters by the time November rolled around. Incidentally, that's why it's too early to say either party will be favored in 2016. We don't even know yet what problems the voters will be looking for solutions to, let alone who they will be picking from to provide them.
