    That's a pity. I would prefer Cowen but I'd like a contest. There appears to be no-one left now to provide that.
    Liquidate labour, liquidate stocks, liquidate the farmers, liquidate real estate.

    I really really hope Demspey runs..in spite of the accident prone habit, he is as close as FF get to the vision thing. Such a leadership debate, means that FF could be forced to discuss things like values, policies and (dare I say it) core principles - before he is crushed by Cowen.
    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.

    Dermot has just said he thinks it was wrong and unfair of Bertie to anoint Cowen. Agree with ya R.Officer I'd like lego-hair-man to run too, a leadership contest would be fun

    This really says a huge amount about Fianna Fail.
