What parishes make up the New Orleans metro?

Orleans, Jefferson, St. Tammany, ST. Bernard, Plaquemines, St. Charles and St. John are the ones I've always traditionally known as the metro. If that is the metro, then Obama actually won it by the tiniest of margins.

You are correct regarding the Metropolitan Area (while the Combined Statistical Area adds Washington Parish) but one of us cannot add, it seems. I get 253,791 votes for Romney and 253,567 votes for Obama.

Your math is correct, a pity, I'm still angry with the Mormons over the whole Utah Jazz thing.

Utah sure didn't get the name because of the world renown Jazzernacle choir. The Hornets franchise is actually considering a name change right now, the owner seems to favor pelicans (which is horrible). Personally, I'd have no problem with calling them the Stormin Mormons.

Was latent Jazz anger the reason behind the swing towards Obama? Probably not. But it didn't help.
