I don't think that's true - it's more that the FG/FF campaigns have been better about portraying that, and Labour have had a poor campaign. They've got the opposite of the "big mo" and it's hard to turn that around. Started with a few poor performances by Joan Burton, and then the right wing media bricking it about the possibility of a left wing alternative which raised it's head after the byelection, which lead to constant attacks on Labour, SF (who have also suffered from this) and the ULA.
