Bonus episode - Jim Gavin drops out

Presidential hopeful Jim Gavin's sensational dropping out of the
Presidential election has shocked the country. 


His announcement late late last night followed reports that Mr
Gavin had failed to repay more than €3,000 paid to him by a
former tenant in error. 


Mr Gavin failed to answer questions about that situation during
Sunday's second presidential election debate and in
a press conference afterwards when pressed by
the Irish Examiner.


Acting Political Editor Paul Hosford joins Deirdre today to
discuss what led up to Mr Gavin's decision to drop out; the
pressure on candidates in the political race; and the
repercussions for Fianna Fáil and for the remaining candidates
Catherine Connolly and Heather Humphries.
