An immigrant running in Dublin West clearly has no understanding of traditional Irish politics – Clement Esebamen has based his campaign on a pledge to offer ‘humility and competence’ in Dail Eireann. Those two values have no place in Irish politics!

************

A total of 566 candidates will seek election to the Dail tomorrow – when almost 50,000 new voters are entitled to vote for the first time. The total electorate is now close to 3.2million across the 43 constituencies

************

Journalists attending press conferences at Labour headquarters in Dublin have helped themselves to mugs emblazoned with the slogan ‘Gilmore For Taoiseach’. They may have an Ebay value very soon!

Fine Gael, Fianna Fail. What's the difference? They're both dragging their knuckles along the ground. How chronicallly embarrassed Michael Collins would be to see how his inheritors have debased the Independence Dream! Shame, Shame, Shame!

Aye, well. No matter.They are all pretty much the same. I would like to see a Fine Gael only government for a change. Sure they could do no worse than Fianna Fail has done this many years.

The odds may be with him,but it has been pumpous and arrogant to talk and act as he is already Taoiseach before a single vote is counted! The general irish voter is not a fool and should never be taken for granted. Enda don't be surprised if it does not go completly as planed!
