As far as SD goes, 2008 was an anomaly.  2012 really wasn't, though...Obama lost it by 18, but was winning by 4 nationally, so it voted 22 points to the right of the nation.  Pretty similar to 2004 and before.  In 2004, Bush won SD by 21.5 points and won nationally by 2.5 points, meaning SD was 19 points to the right of the nation.  So actually, SD voted more R relative to the nation in 2012 than it did in 2004.
