I'd come back to this in a month or two. There is still way too much volatility in the general public. Clinton supporters have to decide where they will stand for one.

Because Obama has to win at least one or two southern states to counteract if McCain wins a state like Ohio or Penn. I think that if Virginia and Georgia turns blue and goes for Obama then McCain have to win Ohio to offset those victories, also Wisc, Minn and Flordia plays a big part as well.
There are so many ways that Obama can lose most of the classic swing states and still (realistically) win the election and he doesn't need a southern state to do it. He must hold on to at least one of PA/OH/FL/MI though unless he puts together something amazing.
