I'm surprised so many here voted that they would walk. It was never going to be anything but a foregone conclusion despite some of the spin from Greens that it could be touch and go
We merely attributed them more sense than it would appear they have. I will lower my valuation of them next time.
If against the odds the economy bounces back and employment rises then this will have been a master stroke for them, but what are the odds on that happening by 2012?
Isn't it the other way around? 58% thought they'd approve the pfg, while 80% or so did..
The Greens needed to begin from a strong negotating position but I guess many people, here and in general, just liked the idea of the Government collapsing. Wish fulfillment I think that's called.
P.ie is a really good barometer of what's not going to happen. Look at every election, Lisbon, NAMA etc. Most peoples' opinions are ruled by their desires. Silly really.
A P.ie moderator stated this on June 25th 2010: P.ie tolerates very broad free speech, and thus allows sectarian bigotry etc
