Oh, and PA-08 gave President Bush 48% in ‘04.

NH-1 went for Bush by 51% in 2004. Freshman incumbent Dem Carol Shea-Porter defeated Jeb Bradley, who is running to recapture his seat. On Aug 20 Jeb had $360K in the bank (but $350 in debt, for +$10K), while Shea-Porter had $675K ready and waiting. However, Bradley did have to defeat a primary challenger just a couple of weeks ago. There are also Green and Libertarian candidates on the general election ballot. Low turnout killed Bradley in '06 (when polling generally showed him ahead), so he's got a decent shot at this seat if he can get some more money in the bank. McCain's strength in the competitive state of NH likely means plenty of visits, translating to $$$ and exposure for Jeb.

Yeah, but Murphy won in 2006 by only about 1200 votes, out of about 250,000. That's less than one percent. Murphy is a floater who will be gone on the second flush.
