Beginning to get a sense of how scared and upset you guys were by the election results and subsequent polling. No matter what you did the support just grew and grew for the Shinners. And you keep up the same strategy. Please don't go into introspection mode and figure out the problem. Keep on, keeping on as they say.

I'm sure himself, the missus and their pals have fascinating convos on what the lower classes really require in housing over a nice bottle or two of Pinot Grigio.

Doherty strikes me as the type of dude suited to running a 3 star BnB in Rossnowlagh. He is a mouth who is well accustomed to cranking away. At some stage last year he would have been knee deep in Sinn Féin's election strategy, It cost them 6-8 seats at least. I wouldn't trust him to run a pee up in a Brewery. He is all bluff.

FrancieBrady wrote: » No christy, just mentioning that was the point where Pearse crossed over to the dark side in Boards.ie land. he was bad shinner after that. They're a tough crowd boards.ie. A succession of finance ministers can drive over the cliff, and poor Pearse can't get a look in. If only he'd let Michael Noonan make another boo boo, it all could've been so different.

They always need a good Shinner to contrast the rest. Used to be McGuinness was a good Shinner to contrast with Bad Gerry. You can read this stchick like a book if you are around long enough.
