Rodney Rice reports on the style of electioneering adopted by Charles Haughey and Gareth Fitzgerald as they lead their parties for the first time in a general election.
While Haughey talks with Dublin street traders, Fitzgerald meets German tourists and the party faithful in Limerick. For many, the media image of the men was that of the "self-made business man versus the slightly distracted professor".
