They are similar in that they are polarized, but NM is more elastic than NC. George Bush won NM in 2004 because he nearly evenly split the Hispanic vote, and Hispanics have trended D significantly since. NC is slowly but surely trending D, because of snowbirds from the north. 2008 may have just been a perfect storm, and NC  wasn't a true swing state yet.
