More about regional, reflections collected here and there by Enrico Moretti . start by Grillo phenomenon, with this letter reported by Conca de Gregorio in its editorial today on "Unity" : "I voted for Grillo fatigue, a desire for change without any great expectations, to give a signal to the PD, because tired of the usual mechanisms of power. I do not think that the Movement has taken the 5-star "lost profits" if there were, I would not have voted. I work in a library transformed into an institution by the mayor Cofferati at the end of the mandate. We live in an unprecedented situation of neglect after having been the flagship of Bologna with capital of culture. I can no longer turn the other cheek. I am convinced that the lost profits have thrown in the trash hands that are dismantling the "Emilia model" a piece at a time, people applying for unpresentable. They prefer the unsuspecting, the inexperienced: they represent most of my loss, my confusion, my desire for change ".
again by the same editorial: "This is a vote of disappointment and anger toward a center [...] that failed to comply with expectations. That compared to what the voters asked did not have enough courage to change its leadership, to focus on renewal, on a new logic and not only on arithmetic sums of possible alliances, on a clear plan and simple alternative it was also - as Vendola - a new 'story' " .
On the same wavelength the editor of La Repubblica, Ezio Mauro : "the Democratic Party has been practiced primarily in the construction of [...] a" meccano "alliances, as if the policy was summarized by the mere arithmetic, and as if the identity and nature of a party were not more important than any tactics. Voters do not know whether the Democratic Party is a secular party in a country where the Church is moving as a political entity, they do not know if it is an opposition force, with all the offers of dialogue that some of his men specialized turn daily to the Knight, whatever happens, do not even know if it is left in a country where the right - and right to the cube - shows its true face in every policy choice, institutional or social.
In addition, there is a problem of selection of elites, policy frameworks, choice of candidates. What is the point Loiero candidate in Calabria, and then come to 32 percent? And what is the point in the war Vendola, cursed by the outgoing governor left a few months ago without a logical reason, and now hailed as the regional winner from those who fought? The reality is that the Democratic Party has a meaning if it is a new party not only from the point of view of twentieth-century legacy, but also in form, method and character: a strong party but unarmed, as new scalable, open for contestable. " Mauro then concludes: "There's a lot of work to do .... Last but not least, look for a leader who can challenge and win the Knight, as happened with Prodi and search for free, even outside the obligatory paths of age, belonging and nomenklatura. Perhaps, also left the time has come to a foreign pope. "
The "Pope alien, presumably, is Vendola (as he also called again on Monday Maltese Republic). Now, according to I like Laura wrote in comments yesterday, it is not put to work sawing and replace it with Vendola Bersani, here it is clear that the Democratic Party needs a strong injection of content, content that Vendola (and Grillo) are representing.
