Good question.  The real reason is that people who supported Obama in 2008 were voting for an idea that was never going to occur.  Voting for a person and expecting everything to turn into pretty roses is not a rational or reasonable expectation.  Race had a lot to do with it too, and it still does to this day.  If you were to ask the vast majority of African-Americans what it is they like most about Obama, they wouldn't be able to tell you without admitting that they voted for him because he was black.  Most people don't find that to be an acceptable answer. 

So the problem is that a majority of people vote for someone who black people feel is on their side. Sounds like a catastrophe for republican strategy.
