For SQL Server 2008 Express you need to include Microsoft.Sql.Server.Express.10.0":

<BootstrapperFile Include="Microsoft.Sql.Server.Express.10.0">
    <ProductName>SQL Server 2008</ProductName>
</BootstrapperFile>

Note: My example came from my installation using Visual Studio 2010 (Windows SDK 7.0a). The include is likely Microsoft.Sql.Server.Express.9.2 for VS 2008, but I have no way of verifying this right now.
