What is the story with this? It all sounds a bit strange. (Hard to see anything objective on it as it seems to be just digs at sf or Ross and then some at RTÉ thrown in.)

Denn Forever

Fianna Fáil first.  Need another republican party

The Boy Wonder

From what I've been reading about the book it seems to be a fairly objective bio - Mary Lou was accommodating to an extent, the main SF players were not.
Shane Ross has experience of working with Mary Lou on an Oireachtas committee and is well disposed towards her despite obvious political differences.

She probably got a mortgage like the rest of us. How did you pay for your house?
   Edit( don't answer last question as its none of my fuppin business).

Does her husband work?

Itchy

I imagine it's a riveting read and will be in everyone Christmas stocking this year. RTE cut his much discussed interview as it was boring (their words, not mine)

Doesn't she come from a privileged background with private education?
