The justification has been that Florida is a swing state and contains a large population of Cuban exiles who hate the Castros.

I pretty much agree with Obama here, the embargo simply hasn't been effective at removing the Castros from power and it is probably time to take a different tact. However I am also thinking that Obama just handed Florida to the Republicans in 2016. 2016 is going to be about Ohio now me thinks.
