    Fine Gael Ireland South Candidates

    Fine Gael held their selection convention for Ireland South today, candidates selected were Colm Burke MEP and Sean Kelly.

    Within the constituencies and TDs, whose going to break down on each candidate's side? That will have an impact. These two are too gentlemanly to have a cat fight like the other two in the East the last time. Jury's out on which one will make it. Don't necessarily go with the belief that Kelly will come out on top and I don't believe they'll win two.

    Burke is already fresh out of the blocks with his line " Cork city needs an MEP ". Expect more of that.

    Wonder what odds you would get for that. If you are really so sure, put a couple of hundred on it, and you could probably retire on your winnings.

    I'll be keeping my money in my wallet on that one!
