question about 24 turnaround of VAB launch

I noticed that when the current VAB launch has been delayed, it has been
delayed for exactly 24 hours.  My question is why?  It would seem that if
they have a specific orbit to get the satellite into, then the launch
window would shift, as it has when they have delayed the current shuttle
launch.  What is it that dictates that the VAB launch window does not
shift?
