Maybe this is the last note of the year: there are so few days to the end of 2008. But we are cured of terror. Does not take much time for great things and, of course, that everything remains the same. Therefore it can and can not be the last. On the other hand, maybe good for all, and many use it as the answer "politically correct" more appeal. conversation with a friend, told him how pathetic my day had been. As he was recounting the circumstances of the day, in different areas with different characters and different ages have discovered the existence of a constant: the lack of unambiguous answers to questions that are answered with a YES or NO. As you read it. The only thing I was looking at the various times was a "simple answer" to a "specific question": Can you attend the meeting? Are you going to give the folder? Did you get mail? Can you answer the letter I sent over a month?
talked to my partner public figures who end up hiding behind the chief of staff or secretary @ did not inform them, because, of course, they always have the best will to listen and respond but "fair" at that time and claimed they can not evasive like "call my office" ... In the end, stay involved.
reminded me of something that happened not long ago. The President of the Socialist Party was in Coyhaique and there my friend Claudio, who lives in the region, said he needed to talk to him. The president said that at that very moment was with the schedules are booked, but if approached Santiago would receive anyway. As fate would Claudio few weeks after travel to Santiago. He went to the headquarters, Paris, and told his conversation with the president and explained how long he would be in the capital. With great kindness, the secretary told her not to worry no need to call him to tell when they would receive. Some time later, it was: it was a sunny day in Patagonia when I phoned to tell him that you can be seen next Friday ... Stay involved.
Without going any further, two days ago, I asked the general secretary of the Socialist Party when they could give me a response to a letter sent two months ago. I will not dwell on the excuses and demases. All I asked for was an answer that was a Yes or No. Very discreet, he replied: "We will look, mate" ... Stay involved.
To avoid suspicion and misunderstanding, I must point out that when I go to party officials made it clear that I am not a candidate for anything, or want to charge or appointment ... just a meeting to see concrete political issues.
The truth is that now you do not care. The speed and diligence SUGEN only when it comes to finding replacement candidates for office. Everything else is a slow, deep philosophical study ideological trend, which finally passed into oblivion by neglect scholars and also by the depletion of the issues raised. There will always be reasons of state and high politics (candidates, pacts, alliances, appointments) that prevent clear answers.
What happens, and it seems that there is the mother of the lamb is that two simple words, an affirmation and denial, yes and no, they mean a decision and commitment. Otherwise, we would have, among other things, presidential candidate and would also start the organization of the primary. However, everything is possible: maybe primary, perhaps political settlement. The important thing is to win. And ask you for the democratic exercise to choose a candidate, then what can I say? .. Scratch and win .... Stay involved.
