Mezza Italia associa la residenza Berlusconi Arcore a sort of a place of perdition, an antechamber of hell. Villa San Martino is a location symbol: the lair of the wolf, the snake's nest, the receptacle of evil. All this goes beyond any conception of a sense of proportion, but it's true, and we must accept it. Moreover, there is another half that Italy, with a Manichean view equal and opposite, is expected to Arcore Mecca and false papers that would even set foot, perhaps to take part in some lively festicciuola.
The policy in this country is unfortunately not lived on a conscious and rational, but on an instinctive, emotional, visceral. On a primitive . And so will almeno fino quando Berlusconi rimarrà sulla scena politica (dopo chissà...). Il punto è se questa condizione vada, dal "bravo politico", assecondata o combattuta.
Cosa doveva fare Matteo Renzi nel momento in cui il presidente del consiglio, al quale il sindaco di Firenze aveva chiesto un appuntamento non per giocare al bunga bunga ma per chiedere conto di certe promesse elettorali, legate a talune difficoltà del capoluogo toscano, pronunciate a suo tempo dal cavaliere, gli ha comunicato di avere un momento libero per lui non nel luogo tradizionalmente deputato agli incontri istituzionali per un capo del governo, e cioè Palazzo Chigi, ma in quel di Arcore? Doveva, Renzi, compiacere la pancia del proprio electorate, so Arcore not even need to pull over smear, or rather to listen to their conception of politics that rejects the ideology, radicalism, the opposition front in favor of pragmatism, moderation and dialogue?
Well, the choice was between what most would have liked more of what was right for him. And Renzi has chosen to make himself unpopular, well aware of criticism that rained down on him would be the base of the electorate that the intransigent party nomenclature never particularly friendly towards him, but to do what he thought was right. Personally, I interpret it as a test of character, an act of courage, a show of personality.
As rightly written Massimo Gramellini on Press yesterday, referring to Renzi, "the Democratic Party intends to govern if you really have to increase their votes, not just their own allies. That is, must convince some voters to choose the Cayman Democrats. Now, I know many Berlusconi disappointed, but not one willing to vote for Bersani, Vendola or any other person joined the Communist Party. While I know many who, disgusted by Silvio, would be ready to hijack their preference for this boy scout unscrupulous and post-ideological. "
Like it or not, to date among the new generation of PD Renzi è l'unico che abbia la stoffa per far fare al partito un salto di qualità in termini di consenso. Bruciarlo solo per aver osato oltrepassare una volta la porta proibita sarebbe quanto di più stupido la sinistra possa fare.
