President Bush won this Southern New Jersey district by just 2 points in 2004. With fourteen-term Rep. Jim Saxton retiring and state Sen. John Adler (D) with a 10-to-1 fundraising advantage over Medford Township councilman Chris Myers (R) -- who was forced to spend much of his campaign warchest in the primary -- Democrats are poised to pick this increasingly favorable district up in November.
