While I respect your views Brother Nads, I think "fudge" and not dealing with reality is partly to blame for what has this country in the state it is in at present. For how long did Fianna Fail fudge taking real political decisions and just throw money at any problem that arose? As for fudging where Sinn Fein is concerned, there is a name for that......appeasement. It did'nt work in 1938......it has'nt worked since....it never works. You either believe in the ballot box exclusively or in the Armalite exclusively.......there is no half way house where democracy is concerned.

Nice one, Alec
Martin might be an murdering PIRA bastard who hasn't any charm or carisma, but if he's doing so well in the polls it doesn't say much for the 90 years of political freedom that the 26 counties has had.
Its a sorry state of affairs when a blow in from the north is causing so much concern in "little britain" when there is little or no real candidates to compete again his except for a few no marks.
The real issue seems to be that Sinn Fein have a more sophisticated, well oiled (along with their guns), developed party over the last 20 years than anything that the 26 counties have produced as a party over the last 90 years. They are gaining momentum and support every year and if someone of are unhappy with that then you need to ask why this happening?
So it's not a case of shame on Sinn Fein, they're trying,
it's shame on FF/FG, they have not only let the southerners down, they have shat on you all from a great height.

Putting Sinn Fein in power is like putting al qaeda in charge of the middle east, I personally would rather a gay or ex euro-vision winner than a former self admitting terrorist !
