    Next EU Commissioner.

    Comes up for renewal in 2009. Heard McCreevy doesn't want a second term. Who should get the job?

    Brian Hayes could combine the joy with being FG Leader It would be a first but a capable man like Brian could just do the trick

    what if in 2009 Ireland does not get a Commissioner but with the the right person get's the Presidency of the Commission, then my money would be on Bertie to exit Irish Politics and to go on the international stage, otherwise the money has to be on Mary Harney, with her ministerial experience in big budget deopartments, if she wants it of course
