"Gavin looked set to have clear run, but Kelleher and Ahern still hopeful"
"As an army man, Jim Gavin will know the adage that "no plan survives contact with the enemy"."
"The operation to get the former Dubs boss on the presidential ballot paper for Fianna Fáil had been orchestrated with military precision."
Jim Gavin appeared to be set for a clear run toward the Fianna Fáil presidential candidacy, but competitors Kelleher and Ahern remain hopeful about their chances. Gavin's military background means he is familiar with the adage that "no plan survives contact with the enemy," implying adaptability may be necessary. Organizers executed a coordinated effort to secure the former Dublin manager's place on the presidential ballot for Fianna Fáil with military precision. Despite the carefully planned operation, potential challenges or continued interest from other candidates keep the outcome uncertain.
