Grouchiness for the ... "New Greece"

The reactions for the "new" New Democracy began. As we have already informed you, the project of Antonis Samaras for the European mutation of ND is expected to cause significant tremors within the party.

The first innuendo for the current image of the blue faction was told by Dora Bakoyannis, where in a radio interview in Alpha station, last Saturday, stressed that ND is now a small party, which has no relation with the party that she had experienced in the past.

At the same time, hastened to clarify that "she has not, at this time, personal ambition for leadership", adding that the outcome of the elections will determine the new data in the political field. Bakoyannis also referred to the regional elections, saying that "the persons are judged, not the parties", since "the parties will await the outcome of the Euro-elections because only in such elections, a vote is political", he said with meaning, giving the time frame that she considers that will bring new developments within the blue faction.

Moreover, as we have emphasized in reports of Newsbomb, everything will be judged by the size of victory or defeat in the elections. If the defeat is not manageable then things get complicated enough and the plan of Samaras will probably not going to have any luck.

At the same time, Evangelos Antonaros' constant posts on twitter, in a judgmental mood towards the moves of Samaras, have caused turbulance in the political scene. Many within the party, are wondering whether the criticism of Mr. Antonaros express the disposal of former Prime Minister, Costas Karamanlis.

The former government spokesman Evangelos Antonaros, lately has chosen twitter, to comment on the internal developments of ND.

In the target of his comments are mostly the candidates MEPs of the party. He calls them: "TV-stars", "decorative", "paratroopers" and "insulter" and asks voters not to vote for them.

He characteristically wrote in his twitter: "Oh and do not forget, since we are only four weeks before the elections: NO to the paratroopers and insulter, NO to the supposedly TV-stars, NO to the decorative."

Indeed, Mr. Antonaros went one step further and spoke about the intraparty developments in the blue faction:

"They instruments begun to play ... in the depth of the orchestra ... and we still have not seen anything. They are just warming up and ...do the tunings!", while in his next tweet appeared stricter:

"And if they provoke us we will call them by their name. IF THE CENTER-RIGHT FACTION WANTS TO BECOME BIG AGAIN, DOES NOT NEED THEM. "

Despite the tweets of Mr. Antonaros and the attitudes of so-called 'funs of Karamanlis', is certain is that he Karamanlis has not yet spoke and as they say from his environment , "the former prime minister speaks through others."

Although no one disputes the need for change within the party, the followers of Karamanlis are claiming in private discussions that: "cannot any development exist without Karamanlis", and suggest that it is not possible for the N.D. to be converted into a host for PASOK members and font of Siloam for some of them.

As appreciate however many political analysts, the bet for Antonis Samaras is not so much how to make the opening in the center and in the middle ground, but how he will manage to unite the "cracked pieces" of Popular-Right who are the essential parts of ND. The same question employs highly and those who see themselves as active agents in ND, in the after Samaras season.
