Looks like the Fianna Fáil got soundly defeated; the Greens down some points as well.

Labour did alright, as did Fine Gael, and I see Sinn Féin are still in Irish politics. Surprised to see the Socialists with two seats, but then, you folks on the other side of the Pond do handle things differently.

I think the US would get pretty confused were we to have as diverse a political field as Eire, but that doesn't mean I don't wish it were so anyway.
