No, Michigan will still lean Democrat by a couple of percentage points.
The 2008 result was an anomaly, but there's no way it'll be safe Republican in the near future. There's Detroit, Flint, Ann Arbor, Lansing, etc that provides a strong base of support for any Democrat. Plus, the suburbs of Detroit are a lot bluer now than they were 15-20 years ago.
That's not to say a Republican can't win obviously, but there's no evidence that suggests that Michigan will be a strong Republican state in 2012.
