Elections
(letter published in the Irish Times on 10 November 2006)
Madam, - With the climate change crisis, ongoing mass murder in Iraq and thousands of people dying every day from a lack of clean water we do not get many "good news" days. However, with the defeat of the Republicans in the US Congress, the Sandinista victory in Nicaragua, the election of a socialist to the US Senate and the dumping of Donald Rumsfeld, surely the 8th of November must qualify as one. - Yours, etc,
