My congratulations to EK and the gang on an interesting victory. EGilmore shot himself badly in the foot at the start of the campaign with his arrogance toward the electorate [...]]]></description>

I told that Convention that I did not believe that any of the lovely promises offered to them as the payoff for sustaining FF in power and agreeing to NAMA would be delivered, let alone the fact that they were not [...]]]></description>

Mr. Cowen has resigned as leader of FF but intends to remain as a caretaker Taoiseach, all the while citing the benefit of the Nation principally and his party secondarily as the intended beneficiaries of his actions. But who can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is a fascinating article in the FT today wherein the truly hypocritical nature of the political culture of Ireland and its dominant party, Fianna Fail, is laid bare, almost accidentally. It is worth a read but two quotes stand out. “I voted for Fianna Fáil in the past simply because I was getting favours [...]]]></description>

You can&#8217;t even bank on a bank anymore. The list of things that have been upended seems endless. We have regulators who didn&#8217;t regulate. Our bankers are gamblers.

		<description><![CDATA[Orderly coercive sovereign debt restructuring can be achieved without an SDRM or CACs via traditional out-of-court exchange offers. This is a nugget of a &#8216;Tweet&#8217; from the smartest man around, Nouriel Roubini. The &#8216;thing&#8217; now is to find some people with the guts and the gumption to pick up this ball and run with it. [...]]]></description>

Given that they are 50% of the country, give or take a few points depending on the quality of your advertising and your incumbent, then the USA itself seems to be on the way to becoming one.

		<description><![CDATA[For years I have listened to British commentators excuse their unfair and unrepresentative electoral system on the grounds of the &#8216;strong government&#8217; that it facilitated. That argument has always been most loudly promulgated from the &#8216;Right&#8217;. This time it has delivered a result that is anything but strong.
