U.S. Rep. Brad Miller may square off against an old nemesis next fall.

Former state Sen. Hugh Webster told the N.C. Republican Roundtable that he intends to file to run against the Raleigh Democrat.

Senator Hugh Webster will announce his candidacy for Congress, challenging Brad Miller to represent District 13 at North Carolina Republican Party Headquarters in Raleigh, Tuesday, February 26, "at high noon," Webster said.

Miller and Webster taunted one another constantly while they served in the state Senate. Webster's beef: Miller was a smarty pants. Miller's gripe: Webster asked ridiculous questions.

The announcement could mean a lot of grief for Miller. Of course, after running against Vernon Robinson, he should have pretty thick skin.
