Organizational dominance on the ground and internal cohesiveness of the Obama campaign would be my additional two other ones.
Obama's campaign contacted soooo many more swing voters than McCain's campaign did and through more direct means (neighbor-to-neighbor contact versus robocalls). And Obama's campaign almost never leaked and was extremely effective for a number of reasons that had nothing to do with the economy or Bush.
edit: Also, Obama's carefully constructed image as another big variable. His name, race, and history were all part of his "Change" thingy.
