Yes, because being “tough on Cuba” has worked so well for Florida Democrats. It’s wrong on policy and unsuccessful politically. And has allowed a small group primarily in Florida to hold U.S.-Cuban foreign policy hostage.

I agree; the Florida Dem party imploded when the Cuba stance was status quo; IMO with the Batista generation increasingly moving on demographically speaking I don't think we have much to lose by forging a new path here, especially since it's good policy (IMO to treat Cuba like North Korea while we play footsie with Saudia Arabia is the height of inconsistent and hypocritical foreign policy; especially given Cuba no longer poses practically any threat to the U.S. militarily).
