First there was the Redemption Tour. Now, it’s gratitude time.
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is making the rounds among elected officials these days thanking them for not taking any shots at him – in the press, at least – over his marital problems.
The mayor has had private meetings, calls and dinners with various officials to express his gratitude and to renew pledges of cooperation with the City Council to continue to push his agenda.
