Can Mario Monti 1up ex prime minister, Berlusconi?




We 've all heard the news. The european union is not doing so well as of right now. With Greece having to default and with Italy under the spotlight it seems as thought the whole continent has its hands filled right now.

However, Italy has decided to throw out their prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi. Of course, it is evident how much Italy loves its now ex prime minister. In their time of need, they have placed the blame on this man.


Luckily, president Giorgio Napolitano announced Wednesday, Mario Monti as a "Senator for life". More importantly, he has been nominated as succesor to Berlusconi. The media has dubbed him as Super Mario for his work in international finance and his many merits. On the surface, he seems to be the opposite of Berlusconi. He is not flamboyant and has tough exterior, but he has shown through his achievements his capacity to be the next Italian Prime minister.
