Exclusion from public office in perpetuity seems a bit hard, and not just on Silvio Berlusconi. It's one thing to strip convicted criminals of their right to vote while serving their sentences, and the European Court says we are not to. It's quite another to strip away such civil rights in perpetuity.
And entirely another to strip electorates of the leadership and the possibility of returning to office a popular leader playing a charismatic role in the leadership of a political party.
