PM Silvio Berlusconi's coalition lost local elections in four major cities...including Milano and Naples.
His party was also ousted in Trieste, Novara and Gallarate.
The center-left even won in Arcore, the tiny town where Berlusconi’s huge estate is located and site of many sex parties, so-called "bunga bungas"...were held.
But especially painful was the loss of Milano...a Berlusconi stronghold...for 18 years.
Minister Roberto Maroni called the vote was a "slap in the face" to the government.
Previously, Berlusconi said to lose in Milan was "unthinkable" and called the city election a referendum on his leadership.
The business newspaper Il Sole 24 wrote: "What happened in Milan, Naples, Trieste, Cagliari, Novara and other centers resembles a revolution."

How humiliating for the ever randy anciano Silvio!
But then he must be getting used to embarrassment.
