Gérard Larcher, the man who strikes a chord with … – The Express

Gérard Larcher, the man who strikes a chord with … – The Express

On the steps of the Senate, reporters waiting patiently for an hour and a half. Inside the Palais du Luxembourg, senators UMP choose someone to bring color to the Senate President. And will be sure to win the “plateau”. No leaks while Philippe Marini, Gerard Larcher and Jean-Pierre Raffarin, in that order drawn, spend their big O in front of their peers in the Medici room where the cellular network does not pass. The conclave will be a close while Gerard Larcher and Jean-Pierre Raffarin are shown side by side.

But the long wait when preparing journalists suddenly stops. The first messages senators left the room fall on their phones: Gérard Larcher wins in the first round with 80 votes ahead of Jean-Pierre Raffarin (56 votes) and Philippe Marini (7 votes). A remake of the 2008 slam when Senator Yvelines was already heavily taxed against the former prime minister with 78 votes against 56 Decidedly the Senate, everything seems immutable.



Reflection of sociology senators

In the opinion of all senators, Jean-Pierre Raffarin has yet offered a nice oral delivery. After detailing what his “100% new strategy”, he promised to “enforce the Senate, including the media,” in a reference to the record of L’Express on abuse of senators. In a clever rafarinade – “we are bilingual, we speak the France from above and from below France” – he reiterated his commitment to the territories and experience to the highest offices of state.

Las, nothing did. “Larcher combines the networks hunters, the professions, the Freemasons, the die was cast before the speech, decrypts L’Express a newly elected senator UMP Raffarin shines externally Larcher internally…” “No surprise, the result reflects the history, sociology senators” abounds Baroin, elected in the Aube. “Larcher is a senator in the soul, Raffarin is more media slice Eric Doligé elected Loiret. And the Senate, it’s not the look, it’s substantive work. This is also independence vis-à-vis other institutions and parties. ”

“In showing Raffarin as a close candidate Sarkozy, some of his friends did him no favors,” decrypts another senator. For several weeks, rumors of a deal with former president running through the halls. Sensing the senators jealous of their independence, Jean-Pierre Raffarin was careful to conclude his remarks by stating that he was “beholden to no one.”



A campaign closer candidates

“Cope, Sarkozy, Fillon: we do not know here,” trusts Senator of Hauts-de- Seine Jacques Gautier for which the election of the next president of the Senate had no influence on the vote. “Larcher better networked. It’s much went to the field to provide support to candidates who are remembered. This is made more available Raffarin, engaged in his duties as head of the UMP. ” The former prime minister has in any case announced his candidacy late on September 12, in an interview with the local press. Gerard Larcher had formalized in February. “Raffarin spoke to the media, Larcher senators’ challenge Bruno Retailleau elected in Vendee, filloniste as Larcher, who is the chair of the group.

“Larcher played on the Gaullist fiber senators. But at the end of his speech, he made clear that he would work in harmony with the next president of the UMP. He did not specified but everyone understood who he was talking, “said another elected in reference to Nicolas Sarkozy. In the Senate, even the sound of a comeback is cushioned by the thickness of the carpet.
