The final debate of the presidential campaign takes place tonight.
Fine Gael bringing out "the big guns" to attack Catherine Connolly's work as a barrister during the financial crash is a smart move.
That's the view of a Midlands public relations expert.
The party's candidate Heather Humphreys is also questioning who her opponent worked for, and how many repossession cases she was involved in.
It comes ahead of the final televised debate of the presidential campaign tonight.
Lecturer in SETU Carlow, Laois' Pauline Flanagan, says Heather Humphreys needs to deliver tonight in a big way:
