Today, Taoiseach, Brian Cowen survived a vote of 'no confidence' in his leadership of Fianna Fáil and will lead his party into the next General Election.
Like many others, (by coincidence) I was at Leinster House today to see the politicians flapping about to see if the current Taoiseach would capitulate to the overwhelming demand for him to step aside ... alas, 'twas not to be.
