I'd be very interested in hearing from others in the state as to why Obama remains more relatively popular there than one might expect.

One reason; Progressive Insurance Co. Big employer in the Cleveland area, pays well, good benefits. Many have a relatives that works there. Owner of the company heavily in the tank for Obama.

I'm from PA but have family in OH. None are speaking to me at this stage of the campaign.

On a positive note, the precinct where I live in SWPA has only 16 registered Republicans but I'm seeing lots of "Stop the War on Coal" signs and only one neighbor with an Obama sign.

Good point - I’d forgotten about Progressive being a Cleveland company. Think they’re in line to get a waiver from ObamaCare? LOL.
