Franceschini, the nose. “Elly Schlein is a rousing wave”. Once again he wins

Rome. What a magnificent sorcerer! The placid, the eternal, “she will win”. He was right. The secretaries of the Democratic Party pass, but Dario Franceschini remains. He perpetuates. He had been the first to say: “I will vote for Elly Schlein”. Not only. His wife Michela De Biase could also aim for the position of group leader (the others who play it are Francesco Boccia, Chiara Gribaudo, Cecilia D’Elia, Marco Furfaro, he even says he is deputy secretary). Schlein? Too unripe, poorly structured. When his name was mentioned in Stefano Bonaccini’s number two, as a challenger to him, there were many skeptics. Even Goffredo Bettini who assembled winning candidates in series, he was insecure: “I reserve the right to decide”. Franceschini no. Franceschini is never sceptical. He prays, confides in Our Lord. Franceschini is in fact the “nose” of the Democratic Party. Everyone knows that he is a kind of son for Sergio Mattarella.

He was elected in Naples, because Franceschini is the “Culture”, the “Word” and the word is not disputed. The Word is everywhere and runs where you win. His wife is also a candidate. And no one dares to say that she is Franceschini’s wife! But is it perhaps not true that she is also Franceschini’s wife. In the House, “the nose” speaks to reporters in the ear. In the Senate he prefers Guido Crosetto and Matteo Renzi who, but who remembers?, called him “Dario the vice-disaster”. He remained a minister with Renzi, with Conte, with Draghi (whom he didn’t love, they never spoke to each other). The current Minister of Culture, Gennaro Sangiuliano, even dreams of it at night. And he falls out of bed. Franceschini moves with an interview that is the nautical map. When he serves, he gives one. It is useful for sailors, it is the map that makes us understand where the world is going. It’s the bottom of the coffee cup. Al Nazareno say: “The head of the table is where Dario sits”. It is singular how he launched Elly’s candidacy: “he is 37 years old and has all the characteristics to win in this new time”. The masterpiece passage on Bonaccini: “Stefano has led the party at various levels from its foundation in 2007 to today, and now it is right that he leave the step”. Unlike Bonaccini who was there from the foundation of the Democratic Party, Franceschini was there before the foundation of the foundation of the foundation. It was he who called Letta from Paris. He is a friend of Giuseppe Conte. He is Veltroni’s replacement. He is Renzi’s chief scout. He the novelist: “In France they love me”. He is the author of Elisabetta Sgarbi. He is Rome. He is Ferrara. He is He. They have all vanished, and everyone says. Veltroni has returned to writing detective stories, D’Alema travels to South America, Bersani is now a guest of Floris. Renzi prefers conferences. Franceschini remains with his slow step, that beard now the color of orange like a pumpkin. If Franceschini’s talent had been employed in private industry we would have the new Sergio Marchionne. But as we know, Franceschini’s art is spent in designing the new secretary models. He’s the director of the leftist Bronze Museum. He tickets new exhibitions. For 2023 he has already announced the exhibition “The Rights of Schlein”. The exhibition will remain open until the director Franceschini finds new works. A new secretary.
