Default Who within FF can replace Cowen?

As a General Election is off the cards we will have a FF/Green government for the next few years. However Cowen is not being seen as offering leadership.

Who could replace Cowen within FF? Micheál Martin perhaps?

MM Taoiseach. BL Tanaiste.

Biffo just ain't officer material: he'd be a good sergeant however. Chief whip?

No one -- literally. And the same no one should replace each Green/ FF TD after the next election.

i think the question should be, whom in FF could replace Cowen and be good for the country not just good for him/herself & FF....

that is a much harder question to answer

Paddy Power is offering 15:8 for a GE in 2009, the same as for 2012.

Only a few months ago it was 8:1 for 2009.
