The Lisbon campaign party posters

At the weekend, I saw the FG and FF posters for the Lisbon campaign. Then yesterday, I saw the PD ones. I commented to a friend that FF had gone straight for the message, but that FG and the PDs seemed to be using the Lisbon campaign to give their party leaders Enda Kenny and Senator Wotsisname some profile. Miriam Lord in today's Irish Times shares my view about the PDs.

Then I saw the Labour Party's posters this afternoon. Oh dear. At least with the other parties, you can tell at a glance what way they want you to vote. On the Labour Party poster, the word "yes" is in small print, and buried in a two-phrase slogan.
