Related: About this forumHello Los Angeles. What's the story w. Eric Garcetti?
Another anti-union, anti teacher, "market reformer"? His bio doesn't exactly bode well:
>>>Garcetti was born in Los Angeles. His father, former Los Angeles County District Attorney Gil Garcetti, is an American of Spanish, Italian, and Indigenous descent, and his mother, Sukey Roth, is of Russian Jewish descent.[4][5][6][7][8] Garcetti attended elementary school at UCLA Lab School (formerly Corinne A. Seeds University Elementary School), and middle school and high school at Harvard-Westlake School. He majored in political science and urban planning and received a B.A. from Columbia University in 1992 as a John Jay Scholar.[9] At Columbia, he served on the Student Council, was President of the St. Anthony Hall literary society, founded the Columbia Urban Experience, and co-wrote and performed in three years of the Varsity Show, a student-written musical, whose past co-writers include Richard Rodgers, Oscar Hammerstein II, and Lorenz Hart. Garcetti also received a Masters of International Affairs from the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University, graduating in 1993.[10] He studied as a Rhodes Scholar at The Queen's College, Oxford[11] and also studied at the London School of Economics.>>>wiki
Any light at the end of this tunnel?
Or is he just another political-class preppie?
Say it ain't so.

Hmmm... maybe this is why there hasn't been a lot of MSM coverage?
None, actually; that I've seen anyway.

"Progressive" as in DLC and their "Progressive Policy Institute?"
Or "progressive" as in "somewhere to the left of the rest of the right-wing nation?"

Gee... so where's all the foundation $$$ and hedge-fund cash going to go out there?
San Diego, I guess.
