Pedro Sánchez has resumed his seat in the second debate of the presidency of the Spanish Government

(From Madrid) The second debate for the presidency of the Government of Spain, five days before the elections, It was more agile than Monday's, with more flexible rules as proposed by journalists from Atresmedia, although just as intense. It is not usual that the presidential debates take place two days in a row, with the physical and emotional exhaustion that entails for the protagonists. However, three of the four candidates performed better than RTVE.

Pedro Sanchez, of the PSOE, had the ability to put himself in the center, speaking as a quieter and better arrested prime minister. Pablo Casado, the PP, he has also recovered from the importance, when yesterday he looked shy in front of Albert Rivera, citizens who today, he seemed impertinentleaving Pablo Iglesias, from Podemos, moderate and respectful of the word and time of others.

The first shot was made by Iglesias, who came to the debate by taxi, a nod to this group who is in arms against Uber. As for Casado, the reporters in the hospitality chain asked him if he would be a little more aggressive, "yesterday he was too moderate". And he did, although on his arrival, he said: "I want to attack the problems of Spain, not those of my political opponents for whom I have a lot of respect"

In this case, there were two moderators, Ana Pastor and Vicente Vallés, who officiated as true journalists, asked questions and asked contradictory questions about why candidates accepted the role of interviewees. As the time was not timed, a "time room" was organized next to the ground, where four journalists measured the minutes that each candidate presented and debated to make sure it was fair and correct. balanced for each.

Before, the fifth candidate, Santiago Abascal, of Vox, which was not authorized by the electoral commission to participate in the debate, He showed his strength during an act that he held in Las Rozas, outside of Madrid. There, he tried to reproduce those who claimed his absence would hurt his position, repeating that Sunday they would give a surprise that is not reflected in any polls done so far.

Contrary to what happened yesterday, Sanchez was safer and raised the profile early on before journalists questioned what their alliance policy would be like if they won the elections. "What we are doing is winning the elections and proposing the stability and incorporation of progressive and prestigious independents," emphasizing that "the Socialist is the only party that can win both the right and the extreme right "

Rivera, for one, badured that with the PSOE and Podemos "I do not even go around the cornerI am a liberal centrist and I want the opposition to be led by Mr Sánchez with the PP. I will always reach out to other constitutionalists. "

Casado asked "to govern who wins the elections" and repeated an argument that already offered yesterday. "No one is asking us what kind of coalition we will form, because we are the most predictable political arena in Spain," he said. "Anyone who wants to support this project will do it, we need to ensure stability," he said.

Iglesias also repeated what he had said yesterday about this. "We'll see who wins, but what is clear is that single-party governments have come to an end. I think that's a good thing. People like that have to agree. The next Spanish government will be a coalition government, "he said.

But the moment that showed that Sanchez came to the debate with a more offensive attitude, that is when he responded hard to Rivera, who declared that he was in agreement with the separatists to join the government. "It 's wrong, I' ve never made a deal with separatists, it 's wrong, it' s not, and it 's never, never."said in a tone that had not been heard yesterday, an empathy for the socialist electorate, which for the most part (70%) is in favor of the unity of Spain and against separatism.

Casado did not like that role of Sánchez and he remembered that the former head of the PSOE, Felipe González, said the current head of the Spanish government. "He talks to her and he lies to me at the same time, he has accepted the separatists and taken all kinds of pictures," he said.

Strangely, it's Iglesias who claims moderationsaying that "we do not need to call ourselves liars" and as Rivera did not want to let him moderation and spoke over him, the head of Podemos complained. "I did not interrupt you, Mr. Rivera," which forced the head of the citizens to shut up.

Of course, Rivera insisted that "Mr. Sánchez was in agreement with the separatists, they all saw him", which was another momentous moment of impact when he was in the mood. he presented Sanchez with a copy of the doctoral thesis. "I brought a book you did not read", an investigation revealed that he had plagiarized a high percentage.

The head of government did not stay behind and handed him the book Santiago Abascal. Spain vertebrates, from Fernando Sánchez Dragó, where he is badured that the leader of Vox, former supporter of the sentence of life imprisonment and his removal from welfare, among other issues. "Know your political ally," he told Rivera. The citizen candidate, for his part, replied: "You are a fake, as I see with concern, you have a false thesis, judge whether this man is lying or not."

Married, of course, relied on the PP's economic achievements. "The Socialist Party believed that zero net employment, Zapatero created 3 million unemployed". And he took the opportunity to hit his ally Rivera, who spoke fluently of all the questions, although he was never responsible for management. "Maybe when you govern citizens, you will be able to say how jobs are created," he said.

Obviously, the problem of abortion has gone well for the PSOE and Podemos. In the problem of immigrants, none has gone very well, because nobody knows very well how to find a fair way out for the Spaniards and humanitarian with the migration that arrives on the coast under dramatic conditions.

A two hour debate, closer to a collective interview. In the end, to the golden minute that everyone had, Casado declared that "if he wants a real and safe change, it is the Partido Popular," said Sanchez in a motion of censure that has led to the government and asked him "they say a strong and clear vote for the Socialist Party," Rivera explained, "we think of the future and not the past as we hear it here," said Iglesias: "The story is not written, the story is written by you: yes, it is it can".

Believe or burst, the Podemos candidate closed his golden moment with the slogan that led Mauricio Macri to the Argentine presidency.

If successive debates have been used to define the indecisive (25 to 30%, according to the polls), or to modify the vote of those already defined, it is still not possible to know it. At the heart of the territorial crisis, the pressure of immigration and economic recovery desired, as well as the arrival of new challenges on the agenda, such as the fight against gender-based violence , it's clear that Spanish democracy gives a new sign of strength and pbadion for a deep political debate.
