Last I checked the damage bonus was increased for 2hnd weapons such that they are better for high ac/level targets. So the rule of thumb you're offering, "2h for blue/green mobs and 1h for white/yellow/red mobs" is actually backwards, at least at 60.
You'd have to go look at the bonus dmg number to determine the exact breaking point though.
Also, from experience 2h assuming it's not hampered by a dmg cap is almost always better, assuming similiar ratio, than 1h weapons because of the lack of dual weild skill to proc the offhand swing until the late 40s early 50s.
Finally, as you'll see far less riposte dmg from a 2hnder while leveling solo. My advice is to get a cheap Wu's quivering staff and ride it till low 50s when you should be looking for upgrade to ifs/peacebringer/epic&sos combo.
