My comment doesn't match your interpretation of Pews study. My interpretation reads that more people from the center are moving farther to the left, and I believe it is because the far right are pushing them in that direction. The only reason their values and associations are changing is because the political structure of America is now built on extremism. If you don't have an extremist view, you don't count and therefore don't get heard. The center is where the next generation of politicians is going to have to come from to get anything worthwhile accomplished, otherwise you can just look forward to the same ol' same ol'.
