Most voters don’t want either Adams or Ahern for the Áras

  1. Both candidates will bring back a lot of memories that their parties want forgotten by the general public. I imagine the presidential debate,

    Gerry: Sure Bertie had loads of cash from dodgy sources and no bank account.

    Bertie: Funny you should mention banks, your crowd robbed enough of them, and as for having loads of cash Gerry, I’d imagine the green diesel had your mattress full.

    I’d imagine the line up will be something like

    FF – Michael Martin, the chance to step away from the leadership role, respected on the international stage

    FG – Possibly Enda, again respected internationally.

    SF – Someone from the North who wasn’t in the RA, possibly someone who hasn’t been involved in politics ? Joe Brolly ????

    Again if they go with a politician Finuncaine ? From good republican stock, well known barrister

    Labour – Pat Rabbite ?

    Independents – Ming ? Although loving life in Belgium growing a few plants on his balcony won’t get away with that in the Aras.

  2. Adams is way worse than Bertie

    With the whole protecting his paedo brother for 15 years and covering up rapes in IRA

    No to Bertie too

    Enda Kenny or Michael Martin fine

  3. Well yea I mean the point of a dignitary role is kind of wasted when those candidates don’t have dignity.

  4. Surprise surprise, the two most controversial Irish politicians of the 21st century aren’t popular with the electorate. Ridiculous that Bertie would even consider it given how his tenure ended and enough said about Adams.

    I’m not great fan of either but Enda Kenny or Micheal Martin both emerged from the Taoiseach office with a lot more dignity than either of this pair did from there careers and would probably do a perfectly grand non-controversial job. Preferably not someone from a big party though, but if we go down that route we can do better than Adams and Ahern.

  5. 2 vanity projects. They’ve had their chance, did what they did. Some good, mostly bad. Enjoy your undeserved astronomical pensions and fuck off.
