Hundreds attend FF youth conference - The Irish Times - Mon, Nov 07, 2011
They haven't gone away,you know. I think Seán Gallagher's performance spooked S.F. because it shows F.F. are alive and well. I know Gallagher benefitted from the F.G. vote in some instances i.e. the border region (an anti-S.F. vote), but even in Dublin his vote was more or less on a par with S.F., even where they hold seats. S.F. should have ran Caoimhín Ó Caoláin, he would have performed better (maybe 17-19%: what S.F. seem to be polling in recent polls). F.F. are still there with thousands of members. I not rule out a comeback. If they do well in the local elections in a few years (2014?), they might recover somewhat next time around...
