First surprise... Martins tie!!!

Jimmy Iovine

Why is Miriam O'Callaghan heading this debate? She's already used the word 'actual/ly' over 10 times in 5 minutes. One of her statements was "like it is an actual power of the president'. Hopeless presenter.

Norris' looks like he tore a strip off some woman's frock:)

wow miriam, i hope you don't continue like this


presidential candidate 1: what do you think is the most important power

answer: article 26 blah blah blah


presidential candidate2: what do you think is the most important power

answer: article 26 blah blah blah

rinse and repeat for presidential candidates 3-7

yawn how boring and repetitive her delivery is, no spontaneity there at all....if she continues like this with all her questions this will be incredibly dull and stilted

Suaimhneach

This makes me wonder a lot.

1) No president has had to undergo these sorts of questions before, so what to ask them seems to be un-sure.
2) Will people actually watch the presidency a lot more / raise questions about the office of presidency in future?

Hope they ask Dana for her passport and she storms off.

Mitchell hasn't mentioned anything about his father.

Mitchell wants to address the nation on suicide.

She wants them to talk about each others opinion. Tough ask IMO. They just want to spout their practiced usual speels

Where did Norris get that accent. Where oh where?

Are you not used to it? He's been a public figure for about 30 years now.

McGuinness probably believes he's been absolved in the confession box. Nutter.

bleg

McGuinness looks like he wants to murder Miriam.

She'd want to be "very very careful."

... well as least that's something in his favour....;)

She jumped in on McGuinness a bit hamfisted there.

louloubella

Time how long Norris stays quiet.Absolutely nothing to add.

hotmail.com

McGuinness calls Miriam "stupid".

louloubella

A stupid statement marion. I totally agree Martin.

shes making a bit of a tit of herself

Jimmy Iovine

So much for it being timed anyway. Miriam's getting bogged down in the IRA issue again. Spent nearly 5 minutes on Martin there.

marvin80

Hope she gives everyone else a grilling like Martin McGuinness got there

louloubella

No. Blowing up the trains was not a good thing to do Norris. Now shut up.

Sunnyisland

Think norris is voting MMg

McGuinness and the North....boring.

louloubella

Marion is attacking him. Unashamedly.

He's looking for the SF tranfers.

Did the IRA have something to do with Gay father's untimely death?

Miriam loves Martin, she can't stop talking about him!

McGuinness is walking all over that women who is asking the questions, he looks a bit upset and very angry at some of the questions.

Jesus Miram O Callaghan is a disgrace tonight, its supposed to be a debate not an attack on MMCG

Jimmy Iovine

Mare of a night for Miriam. Can't believe she asked MDH if he would vote for Martin if he wasn't running himself. She's loving her hypothetical questions tonight. Hope she doesn't ask anymore.

twincamman

poor debate.its not even a debate.martin is being targeted again tonight

Wolfe Tone

Shameful stuff from RTE here I have to say.

marvin80

Miriam got "almost all" the answers from Sean :pac:

jonniebgood1

What had MMG done for David Kelly since monday was a good question in fairness

donfers

she interrogates martin mcg like he knocked down her dog this morning and then asks gallagher how much of the debt he paid off, he says "almost all", she says what does almost all mean, he answers "almost all" and she leaves it at that lol

She has the hots for him :eek:


Does Sean own the earn money from home **** that they charge you 300 euro for package and you are lucky to make a tenner?

I think Martin is again holding well and is great how he can answer the questions.I am sure he is sick and tired of them.If people where asking me the same question over and over again and i had told them i am not in and havent been in since 1974 i would be telling them to eff off lol.
Fair play to you Martin.

Miriam: ''Why aren't you all being more mean to each other!?''

Jesus this is embarrassing.

jonniebgood1

They are a weak bunch- afraid to say boo to each other.

twincamman

lads this is a disgrace of a debate.i taught miriam would be alot better

The Sparrow

Such stupid questions. This is embarassing.

MagicMarker

Sean was very poor for that question.

DanielGibbons

Mitchell couldn't believe he's allowed speak :P

Why? I don't get why ppl rate Miriam. She has always been a terrible interviewer/ presenter.

MagicMarker

MMG must have slept with Gay's sister or something.
