Zimmy and Spence will say that independents are souring on Obama because they have been brainwashed, or because they have been irrationally scared, or, save the best for last, they are racist...

One could also speculate that they independents who got him elected have realized that Obama is not the centrist he presented himself to be (although I don't see how anyone could suggest that a man who supported infanticide is a centrist). And that nothing has changed in terms of how things get done. Obama marketed himself as the one who descended from the heavens to unite all of us, that only he could rise above partisan bickering and unite us all.

Well, we are more polarized than ever, myself included.
