At the moment, neither the ginger winger or the wan that eat all the pies fit that brief. Then perhaps Ken Collins who does fit the brief but is on TG's doorstep, that will take vote management and that will be new to SF.

Vote management new to SF

 

[SoundMan]

South of the river a SF tilt at two seats would be tempting but risky, it would take some amount of vote management,
Liadh ni riada will take a seat in cork north west,

Can't see SF running two candidates in a 4 seater CSC. If it goes up to 5 maybe, but certainly not at the moment.

Not a hope there are 2 SF seats south of the river.
That said I am not convinced that an Taoiseach is running next time out - but him running is the only way FF retain 2 seats in CSC, because both MM and MMcG have highly personalised votes and highly effective machines.

Vote management new to SF

You know what I mean. They will have a management a higher percentage of votes in some constituencies to bring in second candidates than they have had to before because they never had as big as vote share before.

Winger or whinger?

I think SF have shown even in constituencies where they've had a huge vote they still managed to maximise the return.

Still don't see SF getting two seats north of the river unless someone with political gravitas runs along with the sitting TD. No harm to Chris O'Leary's daughter but last time out I think she fared poorly. I understand that she's a good local councilor but TD is a different ballgame and she's not put in the years to build a profile there yet.

Tommy's cooptee on the City Council is a good guy but again I think it might be too early for him.

Jonathan O'Brien? Nah, don't think so.

And I think Mick Nugent's past would work against him.

Can't honestly think of anyone who springs to mind that would be a suitable running mate for TG that would provide a good election prospect but maybe one will appear.

Either works

Poor michael mcgrath was thrilled this morning when he logged onto the proc and saw a thread in his honour,
During leaders questions he got bored and logged in again to see it is now a SF thread, poor michael,

Maybe a GAA figure could run, that would wind up a certain poster here,
