I see this thread has rapidly become, "What is your ideal result in your state?"

New Jersey

McCain - 53%
Obama - 46%

if Clinton...

Hillary - 52%
McCain - 47%

LOL. Even Clinton would do better than Kerry did in 2004, let alone Obama. If for no reason but money, on both counts.

Has a modern Republican ever won by seven points in New Jersey to a remotely significant office?

Not within the past couple of decades. Tom Kean, Sr. won 71% running for re-election in 1985, though, and George H. W. Bush won 56% in 1988. Of course, NJ is a different state now. The result will be between 2000 (gun control not an issue now) and 2004 (terrorism not an issue now, McCain won't be able to afford to campaign in NJ).
