    Move on after one minute, folks. You know the drill.
    One minute? That's a lot from FF-Lite.

    You mean they actually let Blueshirts into their house! Now they're definitely not getting my vote.

    No, but I gave the Greens, a vote,(can't remember which order) as I thought that they were 'going to clean up politics', and that they might make some moves about cutting down our imports of oil, similiar to Sweden. Actually I've never voted Fianna Fail as I always felt they were a 'bunch of weeler dealers'. How right I was!!

    Phew, I thought we were losing a vote there for a minute.
    If there is a future, it will be Green.

    I've stuck a sign in my window saying that FF and Green canvassers are not welcome.

    It will save me getting an assault conviction.

    You could claim it was self defence.

    We have the smart vote.
    Unfortunately it might not be big enough to save us all our seats.
    Maintenance of the National Roads budget while scrapping upgrades to the Dublin and Cork commuter rail network.

    Yeah, the Greens are really doing their job.

    Weep, think what the Greens could have done, instead of turning into FF-Lite.
