This meta-analysis stuff from a neuroscience professor is pretty arcane, but the payoff for our purposes can be found by clicking on the last of the five links in THIS PIECE.
The bottom line is that Obama seems to have picked about 20 electoral votes from John McCain’s embarrassment of domicile riches.
