First you need a route for /blog/1:
map.connect("blog/:id", controller="blog", action="detail")
This must be above the ":controller/:action/:id" route to prevent the
latter from matching it.
Now your url_for should work.
However, named routes are clearer, so I would do:
map.connect("home", "", controller="blog", action="page")
map.connect("blog", "blog/:id", controller="blog", action="page",
requirements={"id": r"\d+"})
map.connect(":controller/:action/:id")
url_for("home")
url_for("blog", id=2)
