Some of the largest cities to vote McCain have large suburbs within city limits and actually may have had their urban cores vote for Obama.
For reference, thanks to Lephead's work, I've listed the largest cities to vote for McCain:
pop. Overall Obama McCain pop. density 13 Jacksonville FL 49.3% 49.8% 807,815 1,055.7 31 Oklahoma City OK 42.6% 57.4% 551,789 901.6 38 Mesa AZ 37.9% 60.1% 463,552 3,681.5 42 Virginia Beach VA 49.1% 49.8% 433,746 1,773.8 46 Tulsa OK 44.3% 55.7% 385,635 2,102.6 48 Colorado Springs, CO CO 42.2% 56.4% 380,307 2,026.6 50 Arlington TX 47.2% 52.0% 374,417 3,872.2 51 Wichita KS 46.4% 51.3% 366,046 2,635.0 57 Bakersfield CA 42.9% 55.6% 321,078 2,945.9 64 Corpus Christi TX 47.3% 51.8% 286,462 1,852.4
Only including central cities shows this:
