what is your pick for best red to blue congressional race?

my local dem unit, the 49th ward democratic party, is looking for a race or two in illinois.
there is nothing much for us to do here in the land of the uncontested race, the clown candidate, and the highest percentage of votes for obama of any congressional district.
my congresswoman, jan schakowsky likely has something all lined up for us.
but i thought i would ask here.

i don't see any reason why people wouldnt be welcome to post links for donations to their favorite candidates in this thread. show the muscle of the netroots.

so, who do you love?

Ca-10 Michael Eggman http://www.eggmanforcongress.com/ and Ca-25 Lee Rogers http://www.leerogersforcongress.com/press_releases.

DCCC is listing them as 'emerging races' which I translate to mean they are doable if they can build a strong machine and get it up and running. That, and a big injection of money is the ticket to victory.
