The Hill: good health comes before the government's electoral law - Reuters

Into The reasons why Napolitano has held back on the reform of porcellum:
could push someone to consider exhausted the legislature

Into Why, it was Napolitano who wanted to get rid of porcellum? Because now the President believes wise to settle for some limited modification of the electoral law? Who was on the Hill in recent days offers two explanations.

Into The first binds ITER reforms. The Head of State is deeply convinced that should be made with the aim of updating the second part of the constitutional system (not the principles, intangible, but the rules of the game). In this perspective, the electoral law should be adopted in the light of the chosen system in relation to the form of government and the possible direct election of the President. Starting instead from the electoral model would be a bit ‘like putting the cart before the horse. With the result of blocking everything in a babel of languages.

Into The other explanation of caution Presidential (suggested by authoritative persons of the Hill) is functional to the defense of the government Letta. Napolitano is a reasonabl e concern that, once passed an electoral law worthy of the name, the legislature would be considered in fact exhausted. An immediate return to the polls would in fact (Renzi already is talking about). In that case not only would remain suspended in the most demanding reforms, but the government itself would be swept away in a few months … It ‘a scenario that the Head of State not keen to see. So his idea, signed by the Prime Minister and the Minister of Reforms Quagliariello, is a correction of the electoral law in force limited to profiles of unconstitutionality repeatedly mentioned by the Advisory. In practice, a touch-up on the premium.

Into Without policy reforms to proceed at this stage (type return to Mattarellum) that could entice someone, maybe Berlusconi or the same if Renzi took control of the Democratic Party, to pull the plug of the government and the legislature at the first sign of favorable polls .
