Ioana Lupea: "The electoral campaign from 2008 buried anti-communism and anti-corruption. The voters said that life goes on".
The same topics, attacks, targets, words, gestures. He is reproached the redundancy, mannerism, the incapability of finding new themes or to reinvent himself. Liviu Mihaiu noticed, after the interview with Traian Basescu from Realitatea Tv and with the majority's consent, that it's nothing new in his disclosure that some politicians tried to negotiate their corruption files, even at his house. We know that politicians are doing this, for 18 years, they are trading crimes, affairs, votes.
The fact that we know and that it is happening for 18 years doesn't make the practices easier. Then from where the satiety, the tiredness, the boredom that are facing the great political themes of the transition? The problem is not that Traian Basescu is not launching new themes - he couldn't, he is president, not a TV host -, but that politics hadn't change, despite his promises, while the society has. It transformed rapidly, in two, three years, because of the increase in living standards and of the exposure to media.
The electoral campaign from 2008 buried anti-communism and anti-corruption, subjects that had polarized the public opinion at the previous elections. At the burial was laughter, not tears. Laugters of the local barons, candidates with DNA files, Securitatea members and their followers, of all political colours. The voters themself said that life goes on, the dead with the dead, the living with the living. Candidates like Ilie Sârbu, Marian Oprişan, Gheorghe Falcă or Cristian Boureanu are cometing, some of them have the chance of being elected with an overwhelming majority. It doesn't matter what they had done before 1989, or after. No matter if they were informers or thieves, important is that they are doing their job.
It's the time of the validation by polls of the efficient corrupts . It's important for them to come with many solutions and to seem determined to act. Moralists, from politics or the academic environment, are not popular without maps or projects of suspended highways. The programs are exactly the same, the vision is converted into figures, the ideology into square meters, quality into quantity. The new appeal to the knaves of Gabriel Liiceanu sounded in vain. And I don't see a change of scenery before the general elections from November. The candidates for Parliament will be forced, also by the uninominal vote system, to answer the imminent and definite needs of the voters, like the ones for City Halls and County Councils.
The middle class, as incomes and occupations, traditional voter of the right, abandoned the projects which mobilized it at the polls in the previous years. The first beneficiary of the raise in living standards from the last years, started to separate its personal agenda from the political one, to give up the moral reform in favor of the personal comfort, the revolutions, even velvet ones, for consume. It is probably fed up with the fight for the common good, it's time for the personal good, obtained indifferently by who is coming to power. A selfishness born from the deceptions towards the failure of major moral battles, an evolution accelerated by the UE integration and media models. What is left to do for the politicians who mad from moral a political platform? To change their approach.
