Said it tonight on that Brendan O'Connor show.

Should we get it in writing?

A ringing endorsement for a FG vote if ever there was one!

Minder · February 13, 2010, 11:06:42 PM

A Gaaboard whipround for his ticket ?

Trevor Hill · February 13, 2010, 11:17:15 PM

If ever there was a reason to vote Fine Gael.

Nally Stand · February 13, 2010, 11:19:46 PM

There's never a good reason to vote for the blueshirts

Trevor Hill · February 13, 2010, 11:20:58 PM

You`re up late tonight. Mummy and Daddy out for Valentines?

Nally Stand · February 13, 2010, 11:22:18 PM

Still an aul hoor?

Ray D'Arcy and Gay Byrne have been the broadcasting arm of FF for years.
And then you have the print media arm of FF interviewing him.
As i've read as a comment elsewhere, D'arcy has not left the country while Bertie and Cowen have been Taoiseach and thus dishonesty and corruption are not factors hes concerned about. So what is it that he is so concerned about that Enda Kenny could possibly make worse ? Health ? Economic competence ?

As for RTE .... "Enda, how dare you not have geneflected daily in front of our man George Lee ... we'll show you"

And if at the next election FG put up posters along the lines of "Get D'Arcy to set sail, vote Fine Gael" ..... what would the impact be ? ? ? ? :-)

D'Arcy was falling over himself earlier in the week to let everyone know what great mates he'd recently become with George Lee. Apparently, they meet up in coffee shops and have big long talks about how they're feeling and everything.

Never thought I would ever find myself supporting the Blueshirts, but, - Go Enda! (as Stewie might say).

even though leaving the country comment is a bit extreme, i can see his point as it would mean we would have a Mayo man running the Country then

& that's not even worth thinking about

Charles Haughey was born in Mayo just to remind you...

Eny meany miney mo...

I'm far from a blue shirt but given a choice.

I know people who are very anti FF yet think Kenny would be a worse Taoiseach than Cowen. This FF trick is still working a treat 7 years on.

Its a no win situation.

Lose Enda keep D'arcy
Lose D'arcy keep Enda.

I think I'll leave the country instead

D'arcy is getting to be more insufferable than Gerry Ryan!
His 'interview' with media-whore George Lee was puke-inducing. D'arcy seemed to think they were the only two people who could see what the country needs. I can't listen to his show for more than 5 mins. Himself and Lee have one thing in common, and that's the extremely high opinion they have of themselves.
