How many are pure independents or from smaller parties (Greens etc.) Joe Higgins (could be in this bunch), I hope he gets in to deny one of this mob another spell of getting money for nothing - Varadkar/Burton/Lenihan.
Healy Rae? Lowry? I can't see Shane Ross getting in, there is a bit of an overestimation of his appeal, he'd probably do as well as Kevin Myers would.
10-15 seems excessive, maybe 6, the usual suspects. Polls will be suspect in Ireland, we have an aversion to doing what's right :-)
