This would also describe Hispanic-specifically Cuban-voters in SE Florida and suburban, middle-class voters in New York City (particularly Staten Island) and in New Jersey. Obama flipped Staten Island, which he had lost in 2008, and significantly improved in Miami-Dade County compared to 2008, which is why he was able to win Florida despite swings against him in the remainder of the state.

I think that catching Bin Laden may have bought him some good Will with conservative law and order types in the New York area and perhaps was a factor in flipping Staten Island.

Yup, NY was one of just a handful of states Obama improved from 2008 to 2012.
