Why is it that the media always put Sinn Fein below ( Or after ) smaller parties like the P.D.'s or the Greens when giving out information on their latest poll results?
Accident? I think not!

Paranoid? I think so.
Do you not give readers the credit to take in all of the results, regardless of their order?
We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns — the ones we don't know we don't know.
Alphabetical?
We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when creating them
or possibly something to do with their criminal links?
As far as I know they do it in order of the number of TDs each party has.
Yes, thats the case far as I know. I'd favour alphabetical, or even better, randomly each time. But then I also favour the abolition of posters and absolutely equal coverage for each party, so I'm clearly mad

In reality that comment is a sign of ignorance and prejudice
Never mind about supermanpolitician, he's been twatted by people other than Shinenrs on here for his Richard Littlejohn approach to politics and commentary.
What a lot of moderate FG people realise, and what people like him (you can probably finger other such people) don't seem to realise is that FG winning this election depends in some measure on stepping out of the shadow of the stereotypical hateful Blueshirt charicature.
The more the red faced nutters come to the fore the shorter FG's zenith will last.
If FGers rightly identify the gombeen man in FF as the reason why they must take power, how do they think the public will treat FG if the spiteful, self righteous wing of FG asserts it's authority?
Ahhh, so that's why the Blueshirts are second. Must be as a result of their criminal activities with their heavy gang. I understand it now.Originally Posted by Supermanpolitician
