Not only is the complex project unraveling as the upcoming vote causes partners get cold feet, but there’s even worse news. Last night I took my 93-year-old mother to dinner. When I asked her about the referendum, she told me she had been about to vote for “that woman” but read my op-ed in the News on Sunday and decided not to vote at all. Mind you, she didn’t decide to vote no, she decided not to vote. And that’s my mother. Which tells me that Angela Hunt is going to win. (When my mother finally decides which Republican presidential candidate she supports, I can guarantee you he will lock up the nomination.) Which tells me that 15 years of hard work is about to go down the tubes.
