The mayor of Esteban Echeverría, Fernando Gray, ratified in the last hours his vocation to assume the leadership of the Justicialista Party of the province of Buenos Aires despite the advance of the national deputy Máximo Kirchner to take over the leadership of the space.

Gray once again resorted to subtlety to make his decision to resist public: now he has published a video on his Twitter account in which

Hugo del Carril Jr.

performs a renowned tango whose lyrics became popular, among other things, because he sang it exquisite Carlos Gardel.

"Our tribute to the great Hugo del Carril. A worthy exponent of art, culture and unequaled values. Thank you very much Hugo del Carril (h) for your support and commitment. Two greats: father and son," Gray wrote to accompany the video.

In the timba of life 


I planted myself with seven and a half


being the only stop


in life that


I

hit,

I was already on the slope


of hopeless ruin


but one day I said "I plant"


and that day I planted myself.

Thus begins the song with which Gray sought to reinforce that message he sent on January 6, shortly after the movements of Máximo Kirchner were made public to displace the barons of the suburbs and take charge of the Buenos Aires PJ.

"#Yomeplanto",

were the words promoted by the mayor of Esteban Echeverría, through a photo he posted on Twitter in which he is seen planting a tree with a shovel in hand. 

For this reason, Gray now resorted to the famous tango, which is strikingly called

"Tengo Miedo".

That work, with lyrics by Celedonio Flores and music by José María Aguilar, was even the basis for the black and white musical short film starring Gardel and which went down in history as one of the first Latin American talkie films. 

Beyond the interpretations, the concrete thing is that Gray sought to ratify his position: he, who currently holds the position of vice president of the Buenos Aires PJ, intends to assume the leadership in replacement of his partner from Merlo, Gustavo Menéndez.

Since the duo took over, they took turns driving for one year each.

However, Kirchnerism intends to advance the times as a result of the electoral contest and that Máximo assumes in March.

For that same date, President Alberto Fernández would take over the national PJ.
