    Main stream party candidates, I couldnt believe it.
    Ive taken a quick glance over this page http://CharlieFlanagan07.bebo.com and it doesnt strike me as a piss take.

    If it is genuine, its just plain weird IMO, another hip politician down with todays youth.

    Looks like theyve all been done by Young Fine Gael.

    What makes you think it's a piss take? All seems pretty dry and straightforward to me.

    I'm in two minds about candidates using bebo pages, but on balance I think it's actually a good way to connect with first time voters, without forcing them to read dull policy statements or wade through tonnes of crap on the official party website. Still a bit cringey, but worth the effort.

    Actually http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=3725995645 is his proper one :P. The piss-take one was made by a FF supporter... I think actually a staff member of a TD or something, i'm not entirely sure. I was reading about it in the newspaper but the details have left me... FG complained about it and said it was unfair but were ignored.
