No single state, but... basically all rural counties. What a massive surge. If anything, this year should be known as the year of the rural vote. Its not about an individual state, not even Ohio.

Big mistake on what I said about Vermont. I meant that Kerry would win by 10-15%.

Oh. I was already wondering.
As per NJ: Yes there were a handful of polls that showed it round about tied, but the poll average was Kerry by 6. It's still one of the strongest Rep trends around...

Both Michigan and Minnesota were pipe dreams for Bush IMO.   Minnesota was only so close last time due to Nader and it remains a fairly liberal state.  Michigan needs for more demographic changes for a Republican like Bush to win.  Detroit and other industrial cities provide the Democratic candidate with too much of a cushion and Repubs can never find enough votes in the rural areas.
