Your correct Madison well go Obama, all my friends back home are going for him. But the rest of the state is another story. Milwaukee is not as liberal as Madison but it has a decent size African-American population and North Milwaukee is pretty much liberal elite area. It probably will go Obama, the rest of the state will probably go Clinton since it's more blue collar.

I still think it's a toss up but if Obama wins it won't be by much.
