I tend to agree with you on the 5th, it would be a big upset if a Democrat won there, the 3rd though has been a long held and poorly kept secret that this is Basnights district if he wants it when Jones retires, Basnight drew that district and many local Republicans have complained he drew it for himself. But if Basnight does not run the GOP may well have an edge. The question there is this a Republican district or a Walter Jones district, I grew up in that district and I tend to think it was the latter.
To: THE MODERATE
Basnight would have to be pretty popular to win in a seat that voted 65% for Bush and 62% for Jesse Helms. Is he that popular? To say he has a chance is one thing but I can't see any dem being a lock in that district.
