Ireland is waking up... Despite what RTE and others may say, anyone who was there knows that there were over 100,000 people present.

This is not the end of the story... this is the beginning of the end of civil war politics, the beginning of a new era where the public actually demands and expects something more from its politicians. Ireland is waking to the possibility of a new political landscape that requires something other than endless broken promises, smoke and mirrors and brown envelopes.
