While Enda Kenny has claimed that his alternative government will bring changes, but his choice of candidates in Cork South West suggests otherwise. While know body might question the pedigree of Sheehan and O Keeffe; however, is this best that Fine Gael has to offer? It does possibly reflect the lengths to which Fine Gael will go to seek re election. More importantly it shows that in five years Fine Gael could not come up with candidates of sufficient calibre who could represent the west Cork constituency. This opinion shows contempt by Fine Gael HQ for some of the local councillors and in particular: Cllr Murphy and Cllr Neville, but then maybe O Keeffe was terrified that he might have to canvass. In reality what this suggests is that for this constituency to remain strong it is best that the two Fianna Fail candidates are returned. In addition, if tonight poll is correct than the new minister for justice may not be Jim o Keeffe, but rather Denis o Donovan. Of course you can be guaranteed that Denis will bring professionalism to the position, something which O Keeffe has demonstrated at a recent press conference that he will not.
