    Yes, which?

    It will be impossible to comment on the poll until we hear further information on its source.

    MRBI.

    This will be a major shock to FF, in particular that sinking below FG is confirmed in more than one poll.

    Cowen is far below Kenny in approval ratings too.

    There are two real stories here. The obvious one is the dreadful result for FF, but the real shock is the utter failure of the left to capitalise from this.

    It is understandable that Labour would be squeezed by the strength of FG, but for FF to be in freefall and SF not to be able to pick up even a point of it shows their growing irrelevance.

    Economic meltdown.
    Massive increase in unemployment.
    Swingeing public expenditure cuts.
    Capitalist markets collapse.

    And who do the people turn to.... Fine Gael.

    You guys have a lot of soul searching to do.

    Is this one of those 2-part MRBI polls where we get more questions on Monday? Anything about Lisbon in there? I can't say I'm that surprised. I forecasted some time ago that the crumbling economy and decisions arising from it like medical-cards would potentially reverse with realignment of 1932. Even I am beginning to get sick of FF hogging govt buildings, though my final decision will depend on the circumstances of the time. What does surprise me from the poll - if anything - is that the Rainbow might not need SF to govern. While hostile to SF on most issues (esp. the economy and health-service), I had been holding out a candle for a Rainbow to include them so as to hammer the final nail into the coffin of the Lisbon Treaty.
