Yeah, I acknowledged it's still Dem "on paper" and there are tons of union members. Brady winning handily in McCain precincts means nothing. We ran a complete joke candidate (as we always do). He was a black Republican, too, by the way.
I totally believe that McCain's best precinct was in Fox Chase.
McCain's best was Ward 39 Division 14 in South Philly: 71.89%-24.56%.
McCain won 87 precincts and tied in 2, compared to Bush 46 and 1 in 2004.
13 Wards swung to the Republicans this time (1, 24, 25, 26, 39, 45, 56, 57, 58, 63, 64, 65, and 66), the largest of which was an 11.37% swing (Ward 26 - the only one McCain won). The biggest swing to Obama was Ward 35 (19.62%) (Crescentville area)
Here's my Excel spreadsheet with Philadelphia data by division and ward for both 2004 and 2008, as well as swing by ward:

I'll likely upload the spreadsheet for the entire state tomorrow (2008 only).
EDIT: It looks like the colors don't show up right if you open it on a mac... but all the data is there.
