As party political broadcasts go, I think it is one of the best I’ve seen though this is the first of this election that I saw. More importantly I think Pat comes across as caring, considerate and genuine in it. Damnit, I’m even calling him Pat instead of Pat Rabbitte, as if he is a family friend or something. Suckered in?

And also as gaeilge:

Credit where it’s due, the production of these pieces is very good. In particular, the delivery as gaeilge is, ahem, “go maith”. Much better than Enda’s!
