Nixon won Ohio both times too, and Carter won it '76, and it was leftwards of the nation.

It's really more curious how Dukakis couldn't win Ohio at all while easily taking Wisconsin.

Ohio is really more like Indiana than the other Great Lakes states. 

Except Ohio tracks Wisconsin pretty much perfectly until '88. Far more sense to be had of that than Michigan or Pennsylvania or Minnesota.
