Coudl it just be me but hasn't Avril been boosting her profile at home quite a bit in the last week or so?
I mean MEPs have a hard enough job as it is reminding people they exist at all (I mean who did FF elect in NW and East again?), but she's had a fair strong ould burst of news attention in a short space of time. She's not thinking of coming back, is she?
Dan Sullivan. I was back but we still couldn't all have a vote.

The people have rejected her twice; lets hope they’re third time lucky!
how has she been boosting her profile?
she's been on the week in politics, and part of a fianna fail generated whinge about european parliament conspiracies against bertie.
hardly an explosion of interest in the dail on her part?
and anyway she's said a trillion times that after the 2002 fiasco shed never run again. there isnt an opening for her anyway nor is there a need. the 3 wexford candidates are on corse to get 2 seats
she's doing her best to make sure everyone knows how great a candidate Mairead Mc Guinness would be at home
1,197 people agree with me.. how many agree with you ?

"Elite - a small superior group; esp one that has a power out of proportion to its size." (Oxford English Dictionary)
The majority cannot therefore be the elite.
in the european elections in 1999 she got 51% of all wexford votes. in 2004 she got 46%
the reason she was "rejected" in 2002 was because she didnt want to run and didnt mout a decent campaign. you must be too young to remember
you obviously didnt see the week in politics then? she said that mcguinness was doing a great job in europe and was needed there
She was on morning ireland two days ago too. the WiP and the euro speaking thing could just have been coincidence but 3 in one week?

well now that you bring it up i was speaking to someone last night who thought that liam twomey had gotten a lot of publicity lately
his attack on harney in the dail yesterday was the top story on today fm and newstalk most of yesterday evening, he was on the news at one last week with a long debate against harney where he seemed to do most of the talking and he has been on morning ireland and mary wilson several times over the last fortnight
I'd imagine quite a few people here and elsewhere would be hoping that Avril - if she runs - will not only be elected, but also, at the very least be appointed a junior minister (and allocated a driver).
