I see the 25% have re-surfaced on this thread after being in hiding for the past couple of years. I'm sorry, anyone who votes for FF is an idiot with the mind of a goldfish.

And who do you vote for?
Fantasy Rugby World Cup Champion 2011,
Fantasy 6 Nations Champion 2014

Fianna Fail are the best future option.
They've gotten rid of the dead wood and have learned a few harsh lessons to keep them honest for a few years.
I presume that is a Tipp view but not every county would have a Michael Lowry topping the poll.

All Bertie and Cowen did was give the people what they wanted.
The public wanted low taxes, but heavy spending on services.
That's the great thing about democracy, you vote for it, you get it, you live with the consequences.


Giving the people what they want is not good governance.

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.- HL Mencken

FF lost their way. George Colley was honest, but ineffective, so they took C.J. who was dishonest and effective. The rot set in from there on.
Perhaps the can get back to their roots.

Michael Lowry is a nobody these days.
He has outlived his usefulness in (North) Tipperary.

The bad eggs are long gone from Fianna Fail. Bertie, Haughey, Liam Lawlor, Ray Burke, Beverly Cooper Flynn, Padraig Flynn, Ivor Callely etc.

All the lame ducks retired or failed to get re-elected the last time. Dick Roche, Dermot Ahern, Noel Dempsey, Mary O'Rourke, Martin Cullen, Bull O'Donoghue.

Getting rid of all them has left a much better party.

And the crowd that are left either served with those people you mentioned, or they joined FF when those people were in office.
So that tells you a fair bit about their outlook and how they view politics.

I can agree with this. There are none of them in Dublin and Dublin is far better off.

We all know the alternative coalition is the Traitors (FF), the Thugs (SF) and a handfull of bought off loonytoons (the lefties, Jacky and the blueshirt reject). You might as well ask the fascists from the DUP to run and join the axis of Evil..

Fianna Fail are the the inheritors of Diarmait Mac Murchada. They sell their nation and their daughter to the highest bidder.

They make the average Shinner look positvely saint like.

FF should have been reversed into IBRC and then put through the NAMA mincer.

i see a new party forming 'fianna gael' this should be interesting since both of them are poison ivy for whatever coalition partner they enter government with. enda kenny is the best canvasser fianna fail have
