    Sounds promising. But i get the feeling that VB will be so restricted and blinded by his own agenda and viewpoint that he'll allow Lenihan to get away with platitudes and mantra.

    Prediction: inconclusive stalemate.

    VB is very poor at what he does, would be better if it was prime time

    Expect a very fluent exposition of his policies.
    Plenty of earnest words but full of assertion.
    FG policy on the banks would have caused the world to implode faster than a black-hole at CERN.

    He has learnt some of the vocabulary but none of the grammar of economics.

    Definitely won’t be live.
    Brian lenihan is fairly honest as a FF goes and will agree that cuts are needed and taxes have to be raised. Although it has taken him over a year to learn what his job is.

    Despite the disaster that FF are, he will do alright as Vincent will go on about his ridiculous assertions about equality and OECD statistics from 2005/06.

    It will be boring after a few mins.One to ones normally are .It's much more interesting when you have a good panel and discussion.I'll record it and just f./f. to tomorrows papers.BTW did anyone see the editor of the Mirror last night defending Bertie.?I was fairly taken aback with his "decent Oirish gentleman" or some rubbish like that.I thought after his "I won it on the horses" comment,that, that type of supporter had disappeared for good......... seemingly not
    God save Ireland.
