At least that's been my observation.

It doesn't matter what all Obama has done that's good, and the list is long, if he didn't (insert anything here that YOU care about, whether it's gay rights, gay marriage, equal pay, environmental causes, raising min. wage, supporting teacher's unions specifically in a specific contract dispute with a city/state, supporting the black professor who was arrested by the white officer in professor's house, supporting Trayvon Martin, not cut Soc Security benefits, not push for the public option, etc., etc.)

Some poor devil has his house foreclosed on even though he owns it free and clear.

Local media decides to cover this particular case and in the face of public outrage the bank gives the house back with some weak apology.

All is right with the world and we can rest easy. Yay!
