Last Thursday, walking through Madrid Río – there are no longer mayors who do important works for our lives like Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón – I came across a couple. "Go, but if it's you, Lucia, always on the razor's edge, eh?" the man told me and it didn't take much clarification. He introduced himself as a professor of Semiotics and told me that, nowadays, many journalists do not hide the slightest and even boast of their party's uniform when they assess, analyze, opine or indoctrinate.

The interlocutor placed me on a knife edge, that risky world in which good and evil are mixed, there are no certainties, there are doubts and moral references and ethical lessons have been blown up.
In these same pages have been published
numerous reflections on this election campaign that God confuses
. Many columns with voting recommendations, advice not to vote, brilliant anti-Sanchista proclamations full of light and color, apocalyptic comments about the future if Spaniards vote for left-wing parties... and in recent days there have been colleagues who were five minutes away from asking for the banning of the PSOE for being a delinquent party. The finishing touch has been put by the distinguished opinion leader – self-definition that is the pure truth as attested by his numerous disciples – who has asked for the vote for Citizens. I smelled your nose, dear Arcadi.
Without leaving the razor's edge, without being anti-Sanchista or anti-Ayusista, neither meat nor fish, neither good nor bad, neither smart nor silly, nor even a supporter of myself, I dare with some reflections -topical, do not believe- on the day of reflection.
Pedro Sánchez will remain president on Monday morning. That at the end of the campaign it seemed that Feijóo was going to take possession of the Falcon tomorrow night?
I know, it's a chore. Believe it or not, this 28-M is not voted to repeal Sanchismo. The PP candidates in the communities are not Juanma Moreno, they will not get an absolute majority, and they will have to negotiate with Vox if they want to govern. Another task.
The President of the Government has insisted on examining the 28-M. If he suspends, let's see what he does, many rabbits in the hat are no longer left. "Don't let us down, you have to stay on a knife's edge." That's how the passer-by said goodbye to me. Perhaps he could say in the balance. Neglects. As Feijóo says, at a certain age, there is no longer one for a lot of nonsense. And this campaign leaves me doubting a lot. Of politics and journalism.
