“The problem with negotiating in secret and leaving Congress out of the Cuba decision is that Congress will actually be necessary in order to make substantial changes in our Cuban relations. The American embargo is codified in law passed by Congress. Obviously the embargo is a major issue for the Cubans. President Obama can’t simply eliminate the embargo, it’s part of American law. “

No problem. The RINOs will just pass whatever Obama says. Just like with Obamacare and amnesty.

I guess that’s possible. That said, there are a lot of neo-cons in the GOP and they like nothing more than fighting the Cold War and for them Cuba is the last battle in the Cold War. Plus, Obama’s actions put Florida in play and they create an opportunity for Sen. Marco Rubio. I don’t think they’ll cave, at least not completely, on this issue.
