NJ-03 (Burlington County section went for Obama by about 35k, Ocean County section for Romney by at most 25k)
IA-03 (52% Obama)

Obama/Republican Plausible:

PA-08 (though I think Romney snagged this by a hair)
IL-13
MN-02
MN-03
FL-27 (lots of swing here)
MI-06 (though I think Romney snagged this by a hair)
NV-03
NY-19

FL-18 probably went for Obama by a hair.  Im pretty sure NY-11 switched to Obama/Republican, as Obama actually carried the Staten Island part of the district(he lost it in 2008).  I think NJ-05 also switched to Obama/Republican.  MI-07 may also be Obama/Republican.  Walberg wildly underperformed against a nobody again.  I think TX-23 went to Obama again by a hair.  Obama did about the same as he did in 2008 in this area.  FL-13(Bill Young) is also a likely Obama/Republican district.  VA-02 is possible to as an Obama/Republican district.  

WI-07 was also probably an Obama/Republican seat.

It actually looks like Obama still might have carried a narrow majority of the nations Congressional districts, even as he only won the popular vote by two points.  Wouldnt have expected this.  

FL-13 has leaned D for the last few cycles Presidentially. It's a deadly trap that lures promising politicians into attempting to challenge Bill Young; they are subsequently slaughtered.

Democrats just need to wait until Young(blonde Wayne Newton) retires and then they would probably have a 50/50 shot at picking up that seat. 

Doubtful; not with Latvala, Brandes, and Baker still around.

That's what Democrats said about TN-08.  "Oh we've got hugely popular State Senator Roy Herron who holds a state Senate district in the most Republican part of the district, we'll easily hold that one".  He lost by 20 points to a gospel singer. 

completely different circumstance. Young's district at worst is like D+2. The Tanner district was more like R+10. Plus, Herron ran in a wave year. He probably would have won in 06 or 08 when they were still loyal dem downballot.
