It seems that the “green” camp<\/b>, in an attempt to convince itself that it has returned to the glory days of the past, has decided to declare “war” on contact with reality<\/b>. <\/p>\n
The protagonist this time is Petros Pappas<\/b>, who with a generous dose of political… “metaphysics”<\/b>, announced on the Parapolitika frequency that PASOK is aiming for the first place and that the result of the elections will be… surprising<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Mr. Pappas, we fear that the word “miracle” would be more accurate<\/b>. When all the polls<\/b> show the New Democracy leading by double-digit margins of 15 and 17 points<\/b>, dreaming of the top requires either a rare ability to ignore numbers or a very creative relationship with math<\/b>. <\/p>\n
Mr. Pappas<\/b> of course has the answer ready: it’s the “mathematical models” and the fact that people don’t answer their phones<\/b>. Apparently, all those who remain silent on the polls<\/b> are doing so because they are waiting with bated breath to vote for Charilaou Trikoupis<\/b>, keeping it a secret<\/b>.<\/p>\n
While the PASOK MP is indulging in exercises in political optimism<\/b>, the reality of the country is moving at a different pace. <The government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis<\/b> continues to dominate the political scene<\/b>, not because of some mathematical error, but because of its stability and the reform work it is producing<\/b>. <\/p>\n
Citizens, despite the difficulties, trust a prime minister who speaks with concrete plans rather than wishful thinking<\/b> and “surprises” reminiscent of… children’s party<\/b>.<\/p>\n
It is certainly touching to see PASOK executives fighting for “political change”<\/b>, while at the same time calling the rest of the opposition<\/b> “irrational”. The problem is that their own rhetoric is starting to look like a parallel universe<\/b>. When the distance from New Democracy is a whole “light years”<\/b>, talking about a first is not an ambition, it’s political illusion<\/b>.<\/p>\n
So let’s leave Mr. Pappas to wait for the “surprise” of the century. Until then, the government will continue to practice serious politics<\/b>, leaving opposition figures the exclusive privilege of arguing with the pollsters’ calculators.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
