Nominating former Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti as ambassador to India was an insult to an important ally and a clear payback to special interests.
The Senate confirmed former Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti's nomination to become U.S. ambassador to India, capping off months of limbo over his fate.
Garcetti's won confirmation on a 52-42 vote, with seven GOP senators supporting him and three Democrats voting no.
Mark Kelly, Sherrod Brown and Mazie Hirono all voted against advancing Garcetti.
Garcetti's future in big-league elected politics would have dimmed considerably had he failed to get to New Delhi.
Good thing Republicans protected Garcetti's future in big-league elected politics.
It's why Biden's top legislative affairs staffers, Louisa Terrell and Reema Dodin, along with Garcetti, scrambled into the final hours to secure a few more votes.
