New state challenges confront
legislators
State lawmakers face
pressure to act on widely publicized
issues that have emerged since they
adjourned nine months ago. Those
issues include widespread problems
in the state's probation and mental
health systems and calls for the
state to better protect poultry
workers from injuries.
N.C. was Clinton's Waterloo
Rob
Christensen:
There has been a lot of history in
that old basketball barn, Reynolds
Coliseum -- the Dixie Classic,
Everett Case and David Thompson. We
can now add Sen. Barack Obama's
victory speech Tuesday night --
which had the look and feel of a
convention nomination acceptance
speech.
