The US STILL doesn't have an ambassador to Mexico,

because Pubs in the Senate have held up the nomination, (bi-partisanly approved in the House), cuz she helped broker the US-Cuba 'thawing of relations', and the decades long embargo was lifted. Marco Rubio is behind it, for (obviously) political reasons and the Pubs 'fall in line', to the detriment of the country. But, at least they 'sort of' have a reason, unlike they ambassadorships they have blocked (for YEARS) to Norway and Sweden, because of totally unrelated concessions they want in return. SO, our NATO allied friends, bordering the Soviet Union don't have US ambassadors, cuz the Pubs wanna 'bargain' on other issues, and have 'shut it down', while they throw a tantrum. Same old crap from the Pubs. Seems too 'low' even for the Repubs? Look it up....
