Senator McFadden is seeing it. Returning to Senator Cannon's vantage point, these things are happening and the fact that Fine Gael is choosing not to see them, not only the reality on the ground but the potential created by their happening, is churlish in the extreme. I hope that not only through the opportunity of a debate such as this evening's that will become more apparent. I hope that in future motions such as this will be produced with the critiques needed about time, commitment and energy but more importantly flesh on the bone. Walter Mondale was the candidate in an American presidential election in the late 1980s and he turned to his opponent when making a political point and said, "Where's the beef?"
