    We all know where the peace process was going while you guys were in charge. It's actually the reason you lost the 97 election. People couldn't stomach Bruton's position and knew we were going nowhere without a Taoiseach prepared to be the leader of nationalist Ireland.
    So why did FG gain seats in that election, while Labour lost seats?

    The majority cannot therefore be the elite.

    Probably one of the clan got contract, or at least a "study" into it.

    Anyone know what Fianna Fail and Meehaul Martin actually apologised for at recent Ard Fheis. He seems to condone NAMA, Bail out etc. So anyone really know. And Bertie and Biffo were well received.

    Getting caught probably is what it was all about. Business as usual then.

    The government parties lost that election primarily because a massively pro-FF media set out on a vendetta against Labour that that party wasn't well enough organised to combat.

    It had little or nothing to do with the peace process.

    And dont forget Sir AJ's (ER bestowed) famous Payback editorial on morning of election.
