How is the PP in mind? | Spain

The mood of the Advanced Popular Party The Sánchez Legislature is entirely similar to the state of Mood of the Popular Party in the last triennium of González or in the minutes of Zapatero’s garbage after the 2010 cuts: the anxiety for a victory that takes time to materialize. But if anxiety is the same, adversities are now greater. Aznar and Rajoy had three attempts; Feijóo has two to ensure the Moncloa. With Aznar there was a party that premiered a purely contemporary ideological project and with Rajoy there was a party fted still to its reputation for economic reliability. With Feijóo the time has been less pleasant. The PP’s managing reputation is not -mass- in its highest moments. Ideological voltage times submit pressure – many times self -induced – to a cozy and eclectic vocation party, who wonders with anguish or perhaps boycott himself when he asked what he thinks. This pressure also accuses a more comfortable feijóo in the great intuitions – Spain, freedom, constitution, autonomies – than in the world of ideas, in favor of a benevolent Cariz technocracy in front of political programs of social transformation.

That is another difference: with Aznar there was no internal answer, with Rajoy the alternative sensibilities – Aguirre, Gallardón – annulled themselves, and yet Feijóo has only been able to trust the conservation instinct on the right to take root in his position. It is striking: two operations as spectacular as the demonstration of Sunday and the Congress of the party seek to support the leadership of Feijóo, and yesterday, at the Presidents Conference, it was seen how enough half a minute of ayuso to steal all the cameras. That Feijóo has taken these prominence – more open that of Ayuso, more hidden that of Moreno Bonilla – is a merit: by one of these piques he lost married, while Feijóo has sought in the PP a accommodation for hard and soft, for Ayuso and Moreno Bonilla, for tellado and seémper. Anyway, there are presences that show him shadow, and perhaps that is why he is not convincing his own – according to the surveys – than Casado himself. Feijóo, who benefited from the married fall of the PP baronization process, He now suffers from this baronization in Genoa: no regional leader would have dared to lift Aznar’s show. Not even Rajoy. Let’s not say, therefore, to agree on regional governments. The worst for Feijóo, however, it is no longer within the game: it is out, in that remote schism that headed Abascal, every day spiritually more distant from the PP. In the past, the popular hoped to inherit as a party; Now they fear, with all the reason, the hell of inheriting as a block, in forced coexistence with Vox. It is a fatality for Feijóo: nobody has had it more difficult as an opposition leader and no one will have it more difficult as government president.

There is much until 2027 and anxiety is a passion that burns. Sometimes it leads to Marra the shot: in a few months the courtship to the nationalists to openly afford with them is raised. He is also committed from the PP to help reduce rhetorical aggressiveness- « Mafia based in Sicily »- that infects our public life: someone has to begin to behave in a responsible way. If anxiety burns, they are comforted thinking that the government is more burned.

Feijóo faces a stretch scenario in which not even Leire Díez and the wanderings of so many Lombrosian characters of the Bodegas del PSOE fill their vote. It is not clear that the fear of Vox is less powerful than the disappointment of the left with the left. But Feijóo also has some paradox that is favorable. The Socialists have reacted to the last blows with an inhabitual torpor and Sanchez himself seems cast from the day of the blackout. The PP leader also has the prudence of a right that knows that he has no other candidate. Feijóo himself has taken advantage of the pressures of the barons in order to organize a congress to make it a personal consolidation platform. We will see how it comes out. At the moment, Sunday’s demonstration, which some judge self -referential and useless, is on the contrary of the greatest utility for, in the anxiety and frustration of waiting, motivate the party. After all, the parties are also moods and there is already the PP winning the PSOE.
