Emmett pointed us to the great article from the Salt Lake Tribune that had this great quote:

A Tribune analysis of U.S. House results shows that Democrats have narrowed a 20-point GOP edge in 2000 to a slim 48 percent to 47 percent deficit in 2006. In three states - Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico - Democrats have turned their red states blue, winning a majority in the House races.

...but the article also included great chart that tells the tale. Download the PDF here, or just take a peek (click to zoom):
