Delco is mostly inner burbs, with sizable black populations near the Philly border and in Chester.  And most of the Republican areas in Delco are middle-class '50s era development in places like Springfield and Marple, which I don't think are particularly monied, at least not by Northeastern suburban standards.  (By national standards, that's another story since the Northeast is pretty wealthy all around) Loudon I am not surprised to see stay with Obama, just because of the swing-state ground operation.

Somerset was a pleasant surprise.  I figured Romney would be tailor-made for Somerset.  I think part of it might have been that NJ was the one state where Sandy really did swing things Obama's way in an appreciable way.
