    The Irish Times will be conducting polling in the field tomorrow and Tuesday on support for the political parties and leader support.

    They appear to have decided to bring it forward given recent events and the figures will be published Friday in the Irish Times and are likely to be featured on the RTE 9pm news on Thursday (as well as here too immediately before or after).

    The Sunday Business Post will also be conducting polling this week, with their results out at the weekend.

    Where shall the daggers strike this time?

    Hanafin and Co are going to be timing their next moves from this poll.

    Why are you telling us about their polls. Grab a share of this action and conduct your own poll.

    Doesn't really matter.
    Come the actual elections the gob************************es will vote FF back in, probably under a new leader.
    The people who whinge morning, noon and night these days chickened out last time and brought Bertie back. They'll do something similar next time and then start whingeing again.
    Depressing, I know, but likely imo.

    There is a palpable anger that one can almost taste, things are not going to be pretty.

    What support did FF get at the last one, 17%, I reckon 12% this time around.

    makes sense - suspect at least one of them will throw in prefered leader of FF question, will be a bit more scientific than the one in the Sindo!
