Obama's 13.9% margin in WI in 2008 is larger than even Reagan 1984 and Nixon 1972. Pretty remarkable achievement. I think the combination of WI's leftward tilt on economic issues, financial crisis, and Obama being a favorite son of the Midwest who could resonate with working class whites due to his unique biracial background (he was raised by his white grandparents from Kansas), all played a role.
