Yeah, Obama was artificially inflated in the corn country and most of the other rural areas that he cratered in had specific reasons (fossils fuels, Mormons, whatever). It should be noted there are also rural areas where he actually held steady or even improved on 2008, like northwestern New England and upstate New York, south-central Ohio, the Black Belt, and large parts of the Southwest. Not what we necessarily think of when we think of the traditional rural America (well, I do, but I live in one of aforementioned places), but they're still rural.
