Do you think Mary Lou McDonald, as a good-looking young female candidate got her extra votes?
I think the good-looking bit is an exaggeration - maybe in comparison to Royston....Quote:

i'm fairly sure Mary-Lou's female, not sure any of the rest is an accurate descriptionQuote:

That Sharon Ni Bheolain is a bit of alright, and Lisa Burke, the sky weather girl is mighty fine too. Amanda Byram had her moments, but unfortunately there is a large population out there that consider the Ann Doyles, Miriam O'Callaghans andMary Kennedys of this world extremely shaggable.Come on lads...please!!!
Well I would...Quote:

Just to clarify -I was saying that she is good looking compared to other candidates. If you look at all the other posters I think she would have to be the best looking female candidate.
Have to agree with Colm in not being able to comprehend why people in the Republic vote for Sinn Fein. Having that said I like the idea of an Ireland of equals, but would certainly hate to see Sinn Fein's traditional methods of 'Equalising' put into practice in the Republic or anywhere else.
Colm, you sound like the dup :DQuote:
Sinn Fein/IRA
That's right, I'm a member of the DUP simply because I can see that Sinn Fein and the IRA are basically the one organisation. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:Quote:

Surely zero chance of becoming leader of SF without at least serving his time in the IRA?
She Clare's alright but this new one has a thinner face. Looks like a girl out of hollyoaks (I live with me girlfriend, its on, I don't have to be ashamed of anything...)Quote:

Read the aforementioned book, and then say he wasn't in the IRA. It's bizarre that he denies it....Quote:
