A Great Day for Cuba

Finally. Fidel is gone, at least politically. I was hoping that Fidel Castro would have been dead by now, but the world doesn't always work like you want it to sometimes. Brother Raul gets the keys to the country for now- I've said it before- Cuba will likely become Communist in name only, like China. Great news for the Cuban people. It may take a while for significant political freedoms like free speech and fair elections, but I bet the island takes a definite capitalist turn...
