I'm sorry. The Juan Williams piece is an NPR commentary on Durham and its realtions to Duke. Juan really didn't give his opinion, just a lot of quotes from local community people. Maybe you can save the link for home? I found it helped to explain how Nifong got elected.
I'd include the trancript, but I'd have to pay for it!

Can you give me an overview on what the voters were saying?
If not, I guess I can wait until I get home.

thanks

I think the one commenter that stood out for me was a former Duke professor, long time resident of Durham. He said that some in Durham hate Duke. No matter what good the University does in the community they hate Duke. I could be wrong, but the former professor sounded Black. Another was a writer for the UCCU newspaper writer who claimed students would back the accuser whether "she was lying or not."
