Val is liveblogging, hopefully, the demise of the tyrant who has enslaved Cuba for nearly 50 years. The rumors are non-stop, of course, but one dares to dream that this is, in fact, real. It cannot ever be soon enough.

Posted by: Nightfly at July 31, 2006 08:16 PMTold my kids a few years back that I'd love to be someplace like Miami- hell, ANYPLACE with a population of people of Cuban descent- when the word comes through that Feedel has kicked the bucket.

Posted by: Tainted Bill at August 1, 2006 07:24 AMFrom what little I can gather about him, Raul is worse except that he probably can't inspire the loyalty of the thugs necessary to keep him in power.
Sadly though, I suspect he will just be replaced by other thugs.
