I have no love for Berlusconi but this is an affront to democracy, a new PM who is a vassal to the EU, just to make it worse he's even an advisor to Goldman Sachs...

First: no-one has been appointed yet.
Second: someone needs to take the role.
Third: Assuming it's a done deal, one would assume that Silvio has approved the candidate, given that he's stepped down.
Fourth: We'll need to see what, if any, controversial legislation gets passed between now and the elections. I would hope none, but this is Italy...
The single fact that you don't like the proposed candidate is not sufficient to put him aside as an EU appointed apparatchik.
