I got FL and VA wrong in 2012. I mostly just went with the RCP averages, however in VA where the average was almost exactly tied (Obama +0.3) I gave it to Romney because the media portrayal of the race being 'a nail-biter' led me to believe that neither candidate had any chance of getting over 300.

Because of VA's obsession with reporting the most republican votes first, it looked like, for a large part of the night, that my only possible mistake was FL, but then Fairfax and the second half or so of Prince William (Romney was actually leading in Prince William for ~3 1/2 hours) came in big for Obama and put VA into Obama's column at the last minute.
