The "margin" is going to be screwed up because of the Nader collapse. If it was Kerry 48% Bush 48% Nader 3% before, and Kerry 50% Bush 49% now, with Nader not on the ballot or not receiving significant votes, Kerry's margin over Bush improved from 0 to +1, but Bush actually gained in the state because Kerry's improvement came from the fact that Nader is no longer such a force.
There are only three states that I can tell so far where Bush lost in his percentage from 2000: VT, MT, and ME.
