It's not just Anne Arundel.  MD as a whole has gotten substantially bluer for Obama.  Gore and Kerry only got between 55-57% there.  Obama finished just shy of 62% both times.  So MD has actually moved nearly as much as VA, but it started out as an already Democratic state and it's now left of MA.

It's social issues.  Subrbanites are becoming more Dem over social issues.

The thing is, Romney was about the best Republican candidate imaginable for the Anne Arundel County demographic, and he still lost ground there in absolute terms.  In relative terms, Romney lost ground in almost all of the Northeastern suburbs compared to his national performance.  It makes me wonder what would happen to a Huckabee or Santorum in places like Westchester and Fairfax.
