Only antifederalist /ˌæntiˈfɛdərəlɪst/ fully rhymes with federalist /ˈfɛdərəlɪst/ because it repeats the same stressed syllable and ending. Federal shares the stressed first syllable but not the same ending. Generalist, moralist, specialist, and capitalist all end in -alist but have different stressed vowels, so they are lookalikes, not rhymes.
