The people are fed up with jargon, austerity, crooked politicians, crooked bankers etc.
They're clearly not, look at the numbers the likes of Lowrey, Adams, etc. are getting.
The ones with the most to gain from an early election are Gerry "I wouldn't join any club that would have me as a member" Adams and Mícheál "I'm the saviour come again" Martin. It is their behaviour that should bear the most intense scrutiny. They need to start stepping up to the plate with constuctive ideas - haven't seen a whole lot from either of them yet. MM's little tactical delay ploy might prove a boon but otherwise he is still in election mode, populism rules.
While I wouldn't vote for him he has been excellent at shining a light on wrong doing and corruption! we need whistle blowers....Don't forget Mick Wallace!!

He may have shone a light on others wrong doing but when it comes to himself he shows no remorse or atonement for his wrong doing, yeah we need more of these people running our country

There is a cartoon , with 2 Goldfish looking at a (Fianna Fail did wellin election headline) , one says to the other {and they think we have short memories}
Not sure I agree with Micheal and FF having a lot to gain by a quick election. A new FG leader could give them FG a bounce, especially if they spin the story that the only reason there is a 2nd election was because FF wouldn't be flexible. Couple of FFer's I know are concerned that they overachieved this time around
As for SF, they have been leaking support at a massive rate over the last 18 months. Remember not that long ago they were at around 28% in the polls and their actual vote last weel was around half of that. SF support has only gone in one direction over the last year and a half
Also, money is an issue here, how many of the parties actually have the funds for another election?
