Maine and New Hampshire would certainly go for Obama, their electorate isn't so overwhelmingly liberal that they'll automatically vote for the Dem nominee.

Rhode Island and Connecticut will be the same and just Massachusetts might do better with Clinton, though that is doubtful.

All easy Democratic wins, but for sure Clinton would do 5 or 6 pts better than Obama in Massachusetts.  He's run 6 to 12 points better than Obama in the 3 Survey USA done in Massachusetts sp far.  Race, Race, Race.

Connecticut - Interesting patterns, here.  Unless Obama manages to lose independents without the working-class Democrats coming home to roost as much as I expect them to, he should do better.

Rhode Island - Clinton.

Massachusetts - Clinton.

New Hampshire - See Connecticut, although the independents there are different and may be affected by different events.  New Hampshire is a weird f**king state.

Doesn't matter. Obama beats McCain in all these states and so does Clinton.  Except maybe New Hampshire. And even then...

Clinton does better in MA & RI, though they are both 20+ point wins for each.  Obama does better in CT, NH & Maine, thought Clinton also easily wins those three.

New Hampshire - Clinton would win it, Obama wouldn't.

Maine - About even.
