Casey gone into 40/1 for first was 500/1 last week.

Gone into 11/2 for second was 100/1 last week.

Have him 250/1 to win, and 100/1 without MDH.

Great odds. I don't understand betting but that means if you put 20e on at 250/1 you lose 20e?

Think he’ll get the vote of a lot of people educated or uneducated who have been robbed or had other negative experiences inflicted on them by travellers , that’s a growing pool of people you’ll find .

People can have had bad experiences with criminal elements but it doesn't turn them into generalising hate filled voters.
They (the educated ones anyway) can tell when they are being manipulated by an ego driven self publicist.

Shh now your ruining their facade, like most NPC's they only know how to repeat the same thing, throw out labels and put down those that disagree with them.

No point he's won by a mile, but a good bet would be PC gets under 5%

Great bet yesterday was Duffy to get lowest first preference at 5/4. Now 8/11

Any polls out yet? - last one I saw last week he was still on 2% - which doesn't seem to reflect his sudden popularity on social media at all.[/QUOTE






2% before the weekend they have not released any polls since as they dont want anyone tosee his support and they are only polling the PC lefties......

Complete and utter bull****. If you really believe that you are delusional.

Well you see it depends on what metric you gauge intelligence, anyone voting for him based on a single issue he ultimately has zero power or ability to effect change on is not educated or intelligent

They might be educated...but it is wasted.

That is assuming that those voting for him think that he has/will the power/ability to effect change. I'd imagine many will vote for him just to raise the issue of the welfare state or whatever they think it is he stands for. Perhaps even more so as Higgins will win in landslide anyhow.

Make no mistake if Casey gets votes the beady eyes in Leinster House will be watching and I believe many people are banking on that.

Perhaps your metric needs adjusting Vin, or maybe you're right and the other people are just dumb.

That post is gold, especially considering the politics of the poster. See no evil hear no evil once they are on the hierarchy of victimhood.

The amount of money being laid on Casey doesn't seem to have affected Michael D's odds at all. If you wanted to win €100, you'd need to put €5,000 on him.

Not much of a response from the general-isers was there?.

Interesting that the Google Street Car wouldn't go in there. Much the same as Labre Park in Ballyfermot which, by the way, is a fcuking kip of the highest order on its perimeters. Look at the state of this. Sh*t just hopped over the wall. Malnourished horses grazing there too on what I assume is usurped land beside the canal.

You won't be the first person to make racism or bigotry claims within this thread, I don't believe anyone successfully pointed out what exactly Casey said that was racist or bigoted?

Over to you.

In 2007 Travellers were
recognized as an athnic minority which Casey now admits he was not aware of at the time of his derogatory remarks towards them. What he said about them was a racial slur ie he passed antagonist remarks towards them. He also generalized about the Travellers stating they all camp on other people's land and do not pay their fair share of taxes, this is pure drive.He also passed remarks on people on Social Welfare stating that they demand that the state look after them, to which Regina Doherty (of which I am no fan of) said it was utter ignorance. Basically what this man is, is a pathetic buffoon who is a also a Trumpesque type character ie he is wealthy, wants to be the President and gets off on insulting ethnic minorities and people less fortunate than himself. Again I say thankfully he will not be ending up on the Aras bar a miracle.
