FG tries to win swing vote via FF/SF ‘love-in’

ENDA KENNY was still running yesterday, but it was the voters he wanted scared.

After all the talk of letting the politics of hope defeat the politics of fear, Fine Gael’s message could be distilled down into four words: “Vote Bertie, get Adams”.

Playing the Shinners card may smack of desperation, but in a tightening race it also just could frighten enough middle class voters away from Fianna Fáil to make a difference.
