The process to be accepted is long, but he gives it his all. If half of the Democratic Party insists on keeping him out of the door (Nicola Zingaretti was added on Friday), Matteo Renzi does not give up and relaunches. First with the show at Palazzo Madama against the Minister of Culture Alessandro Giuli and the President of the Senate Ignazio La Russa, which contains an explicit message to Elly Schlein: «I serve you because I know how to oppose». Then with the political training school for young people in Gaeta, during the weekend, open to the Democratic Party, with the presence of Matteo Orfini, the former minister Marianna Madia, and the former senator Tommaso Nannicini and the vice president of the European Parliament Pina Picierno . Mainly friends of the former prime minister, Orfini was dem president during his secretariat, Madia the owner of the Public Administration department in his executive, Nannicini in his economic cabinet, Picierno in his majority, names which however confirm the attention towards the Nazarene. Also reiterated in connection with the Foglio party: «I don’t give advice to Elly Schlein because I think she is someone who took her place by winning the primaries and carrying out a real political operation. She wasn’t chosen randomly like others. You say to win against the center-right you need to bring together the entire opposing coalition and assemble it with a project.”
The ex-scrapper’s insistence has so far yielded little fruit. In the autumn regional elections, Giuseppe Conte obtained his “scalp” in Liguria (Italia Viva does not participate), he is almost out in Umbria, and in Emilia Romagna the Renzians will be hosted on Michele De Pascale’s civic list, but without a symbol. The leader of the M5S and the co-leaders of the Green and Left Alliance will do everything to remove the cumbersome ally. Even the internal temperature of the Democratic Party is not very reassuring for the former mayor of Florence. Goffredo Bettini spoke to Elly Schlein again in recent days, after a long cold, and the subject of the discussion was Matteo Renzi himself. For the founder of the “Rome model” (with Francesco Rutelli and Walter Veltroni in the Campidoglio), the secretary of the Democratic Party has the wrong strategy, the cycle of the leader of Italia Viva has run out, and the Dems must commit themselves to enriching the political offer, contributing to create a new Center, for example with the mayor of Milan Giuseppe Sala. A way, which according to Bettini, would allow us to stop arguing with Giuseppe Conte, and to aim directly at that moderate electorate, which today does not look to the broad field.
The majority of the Democratic Party, precisely the one that refers to Elly Schlein, is at a safe distance from Italia Viva: they want nothing to do with it. To say that coexistence today seems very difficult. Renzi hopes with time, and perhaps also thanks to some electoral results, to be able to attenuate the coldness that surrounds him. From this point of view, the Ligurian elections will be particularly important for the former Prime Minister. If the broad candidate, Andrea Orlando, doesn’t make it, the Florentine could call into question the very diktat that forced his party to abandon the alliance at the last moment. It may also be for this reason that in the last few days, the 5 star parliamentarians who go to Genoa always remember the latest electoral data collected by the Renzians in the Region, to underline their irrelevance. Even if the wide field were to lose. Sooner or later, Elly Schlein will have to decide to face the situation, the Renzi “mine” risks exploding in her hand.
