I figured, since there was one done with Romney states, I'll do one with Obama states.

Consider the GOP reverses it's trends with Hispanics, women and the youth.  They modernize, become socially moderate and more Libertarian.

Probably Florida, Iowa, or Virginia.  Michigan could flip too, but it would be harder.

I think a more interesting question is which Kerry state will the GOP most likely pick up in 2016.

Florida -- most obvious.

In this order:

FL -- closest state for Obama
OH -- R in any R win
VA -- no evidence that it isn't perfectly made for Obama
PA -- drifting R
WI -- drifting R
IA -- drifting R

I voted Virginia but I should have voted Florida. I was silly and overlooked it.

Depends who the nominee's are. If its Hillary against a non-Rubio she may do very well in Florida and above average in Ohio.Someone like Christie is probably better situated for the midwest than Rubio.

Florida - It is also the only state on this list that the GOP absolutely has to win in order to take the Presidency.

Considering it was Obama's narrowest state and one of the likeliest GOP possibilities, Senator Rubio, is from there, FL is by far the likeliest choice.

Since Chris Christie will be the GOP nominee for President, Pennsylvania.

Wisconsin or Pennsylvania for that one, or maybe New Hampshire..

I voted Florida, though it may well be Ohio.  The GOP could very well win all of these states though.

Very unlikely to win all of them unless its some kind of unusual melt-down of the Dem candidate.

I voted Iowa. The Midwest is trending GOP and iowa is more white than Wisconsin, right?
