    Best stunt. Avril Doyle and Mairead MacGuinness tore each other to shreds in 2004 and delivered 2/3 seats for Fine Gael in the East European Constituency

    Fianna Fail in DSE are tearing themselves apart, bye bye Ryan's old seat. Hello 3/4 Rainbow seats in 2007

    Diverging off topic, I'll admit, but NGTR where would you see the fourth rainbow seat there. If FF don't hold the seat, what would it be besides PD, FG, Greens, Labour?

    I saw a former FF Cllr. In an area I know quite well pulling down his running mates posters at the last election while passing on a bus. Now from what I heard he was not simply discriminating against his fellow Fianna Failer’s but was also pulling down everybody else’s too, but I only saw him ripping down his own parties.
    But in his defense he is as mad as a March Hair and so could probably plead insanity!
