There seems to be a strong resemblance between Nixon, when he was faced with the "Watergate" scandal, with Berlusconi, who now has several pending legal cases including those which one could describe as "Girligate" situations !!!
Berlusconi, like Nixon, has vehemiently denied any wrongdoing. That may be the case. What seems very evident is that he, like Nixon did, spends a lot of time defending himself against all these problems and accusations.
What is also clear is that many people in Italy, and in particular Italian women, are up in arms against this man who is not at all the typical example of the leader that they want for their children to admire !!!
If he needs so much time to defend himself personally it deflects his concentration from national duties and international problems, like the invasion of the shores of Italy by arab refugees from North Africa.
E U leaders are closely watching him for a solution !!! Is Berlusconi conscious of his responsibilities in this area ?
