Cannot forgive.

One would imagine that people persuing positions of the highest
public office, were people to look up to, inspiring, holding integrity.

At least Italy's Burlusconi is a proven businessman.
My instincts are with Mr Martin. The rest are whingers, not up to it.
Hindsight is a curious thing...

Enda should have gone on tv3 to debate with the other leaders,if he cant put aside his personal differences with a tv presenter/journalist because of comments he made about him then how can someone like that lead a country or be strong in the face of oppostion..made himself look bad

In have to agree. If he wants to lead the country then he should fight his corner like the rest of them. He should be seen to tackle debates like this head on. FF fucked up teh country but at least they didnt shy away from debates.

Then again maybe FG didnt want him on teh debate as he could mess it up
They dont want people to see him under pressuer
Or its just a pr stunt

He's no leader if he's hiding from Vincent Browne. When do ever see him on laive debate? He always sends Michael Nonnan or James Reilly on to Prime Time. I can't remember the last time I saw him live. It's always on the news but never on these programmes. The country will be in an even bigger mess if he gets in. I hate Fianna Fail but I would rather them in than what I hear them say. Cowen is gone now so Micheal Martin might do a better job. Seen as they started the job they might as well finish it. If a new crowd comes in they don't have clue. A Fianna Fail and Sinn Fein coalition might be the way to go for the country. Theres no good one no matter how you look.
