The three most obvious candidates are Wisconsin, New Jersey and Michigan.
Wisconsin: I concur with what earlier posters have written about the state. We will probably be more sure after the 2012 Election. Obama will probably win the state, but if the GOP takes the Senate seat of Herb Kohl, then we might be looking at a realignement.
New Jersey: I think this state will turn red, but it might take more time. The state lacks any large liberal cities (there is of course Newark, but Newark is increasingly less relevant), and Ocean county is growing.
Michigan: I am not as sure about Michigan, but the depopulation of Detroit is of course good for the GOP. They have a pretty right wing state government and a whole lot of Republicans in their Congressional delegation.
