After the Catalan debate, we headed face to face between Sánchez and Feijóo on Monday night. One hundred minutes of high-audience television. The Champions of politics, Ana Pastor said yesterday that she will present, together with Vicente Vallés, the event on the Atresmedia channels. All the precedents tell us that it will be less pleasant than the one we saw yesterday in Barcelona.
Pedro Sánchez, who has become almost the only talisman in his aegis, needs to win the debate on Monday. We will see if he avoids the arrogance of that face to face with Rajoy in 2015 – “you are not a decent person” he told him -, which did not help him win the elections either, and if he takes note of Rubalcaba vs. Rajoy from four years before. Mahogany socialism had its things, but it was implacable in the dialectic.
Alberto Núñez Feijóo, needs to pass his first debate with flying colors, especially in the face of his own troops. If he gets out of this unscathed, some will no longer dare to give him so many lessons.
The debate will serve to measure what interest these elections arouse in the middle of July. The most watched face to face in the history of television had an average audience of 13 million people. It was the one in which we found out that Rajoy had a girl in his head.
