    The SDLP had nobody to fill the shoes of John Hume when he left the stage
    Seamus Mallon was the greatest disaster ever all he brought to it and held onto
    it since was bitterness.Paisley and McGuinness had the leadership qualities to
    move to the future.

    I believe that was where Adams showed his leadership qualities in appointing McGuinness to the job.At the time
    McGuinness had being the public face of the Provos. but now he was an elected member. Adams put it up to the Unionist and the British deal with it,Both Paisley
    and McGuinness went with it and succeeded,in spite of both smirking politicians and journalists here in the South who
    should have known better, because it was not the result they wanted they did not care what happened.
