My guess is that if Obama wins re-election, he'll do so with fewer electoral votes than in 2008. The only other time this has happened is 1916, where the Democrats lost 2 seats.
I will hazard a guess that there is a strong correlation between Obama's vote share and how many senate Dems are left, more so than a win vs. a loss. Ex:
Blowout Obama loss (<40% of the PV): ~GOP+11 (basically everything outside of the Northeast/West Coast falls)
Narrow loss (GOP <300 EV): ~GOP+5
Statistical Tie or EV/PV split: GOP +2-4
Wilson-style narrow win (<300 EV, PV closer than 2008): ~GOP+3 to Dems +1
Blowout Obama win (>58% of the PV): ~Dems +6 or better (this is where they start winning in AZ, TX,TN, etc. because Obama carries those states)
Also, remember that Nelson and Lieberman will likely go down, so 50-50 would likely mean true D control under Obama's VP.
