As most know, this is when the CD's and Socialists evaporated in Italy in the early 90's. Why? Heroic judges unearthed decades-old ties between both parties and the Mafia, as well as numerous more mundane political scandals. This led to "Berlusconi or Communism", and his subsequent installation as defacto PM-for-Life. Let's say some pols decide to use Marcos-style extrajudicial powers to eliminate these heroes. As the Mob did themselves, with some cities resembling Civil War-era Beirut, and numerous assassinations of politicians and judges. Would it surface eventually, and how would the scene change? Would Berlusconi lead the CD's to the right?
