I called them the last cycle and the manager commented on how surprised they were on the continual shift of Arizona to the left and (due to the large in migration from other states) that AZ might have gone for Obama in 2008 if McCain wasn't on the ticket and that if the trends continued that AZ would be the surpise Obama pickup in 2008.
