United We have started the orphan election campaign. The traditional start-up, formerly known as poster sticking, has been held in Madrid without the presence of its candidate, Pablo Iglesias. The leader of Podemos had an interview scheduled for 'El hormiguero'. A sort of internal counterprogramming. The event was scheduled for 9:00 p.m., but it was delayed to the point that both appointments overlapped. A notch of the purple strategy: bet on social networks and television to transfer your message to the largest number of potential voters. Mass media as priority and internet as a work tool.

Thus, while Iglesias mixed politics and humor in a television show - "Tonight I will visit the political analysts Trancas and Barrancas", advanced in the afternoon - Irene Montero; Alberto Garzón; Enrique Santiago; Gloria Elizo; or Rafa Mayoral replaced the absence of his candidate in the Madrid Space Next Station, in an unprecedented situation.

Iglesias, who has even threatened to start dancing in his chair with the tune of the program, has strengthened his purpose in these elections: touch power, govern. Its purpose is to have the sufficient number of deputies to be decisive in the formation of the Executive and that Pedro Sánchez, now yes, accepts them in the Council of Ministers. "The key is not to continue governing them." For the leader of Podemos, there are "sectors that in this country for four years are willing to repeat elections as long as Podemos is not in the Government. We are not at all different than governing in the proportion of the votes that are not people".

While Iglesias's interview on television was going to publicity, the United Podemos event began. Sol Sánchez, from IU, has opened fire. "This is that they are trying to convert politics, the elections in which we believe that by betting on the same thing, we will be lucky. We come to reveal these deceptions and we do not have to play a card public services and social rights. We are the one you don't have to play with. No need to bet. It's not a matter of luck, we're trustworthy. "

Advertising is over. Rafa Mayoral is involved in the act of Podemos: housing, precariousness ... On the television set, Iglesias delves into seeing no problem in sharing a government coalition with Sánchez and Íñigo Errejón. See more feasible agreements with More Country than with the PSOE. "When you separate things are much better and maybe when you are in the same place is when things get complicated. When everyone is in their space it is better to have a civilized relationship and good vibes." In Podemos, the fear that Errejón has taken a good bite of his electorate has been reduced. The convulsed phase is over.

As for the post-10-N scenario, Iglesias appeals to the useful vote of the left because, he believes, the PSOE will be tempted to agree with the PP. The leader of Podemos takes for granted the intention of that pact. "Pedro Sánchez is going to try to agree with the PP, that is the plan. I think they can use Catalonia as an excuse to face the economic slowdown that comes and cut cuts with the Catalan excuse." His alternative: "I think the best antidote for that does not happen is that United We can be strong, so that the PSOE does not disappoint its voters and go with the right."

In the act of United We can speak Gloria Elizo and Alberto Garzón: conciliation, future of young people, the legacy to new generations ... On the television set, Iglesias names his enemies -Florentino Pérez, Ana Patricia Botín, the Ceoe ...- and insists on his attack against donations to the public health of Amancio Ortega, because, he considers, he doesn't pay the taxes he should while the rest of Spaniards "pay like bastards".

United We have opted to focus their campaign on a social discourse and on the measures to face the economic recession. They prefer not to focus on Catalonia, an issue that erodes their image. "Neither the sentences nor the police will solve the conflict, we have to solve the politicians, less stomach and more head." His bet, although it is not a red line, is a referendum, but Iglesias does not want only two options, he does not want a Yes / No, but would include a third option that would define a new fit of Catalonia in Spain.

"My idea is that Catalonia does not become independent, that it is a project so that a large majority wants to be inside. To the independentistas I would say that 'it is not only you'. Spain is not Abascal or Married."
