Burying The Hatchet

November
1

This is a photo taken Sunday of Yonkers Mayor Phil Amicone and Josephine Spano, the matriarch of the Spano political family, who a few years ago was very unhappy with the way Amicone conducted his primary campaign against her son, Mike.

The two appear to be pleased to see each other, so maybe it’s true that the rift between City Hall and the Spano clan has been closed. On Sunday, I wrote a column pointing how bitter things were during the 2003 mayoral race

In a letter she wrote to Republican voters at the time, Mrs. Spano accused Amicone of waging “an ugly campaign…the ugliest I’ve seen in all my life.”

Amicone shot back with a mailing of his own, saying that “Mike needs to stop lying to his mother” and “quit hiding behind his mother’s skirt.”

But see! They’re friends. It’s like June Cleaver forgivng Eddie Haskell for the wedgie he gave Beaver back in high school.
