Debbie Wasserman Schultz breaks with Obama on Cuba
Florida Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz thinks President Barack Obama should slow down with Cuba before continuing to reopen relations between the two countries.
“My view is different from President Obama’s,” the DNC chairwoman said in an interview with The Daily Signal published Thursday. “I believe a relationship with the United States should be earned … perhaps we should make sure that some of these human rights concessions are secured prior to moving forward.”
Obama announced last week that both countries will re-open embassies in their respective capitals after more than 50 years....
“Anytime we’re at the negotiating table with any nation like Cuba that has as horrendous a human rights record as they do, it’s an opportunity to be able to assert our view that making sure that any nation in the world should have freedom of their elections, that people should have the right to elect a person of their choice, that they should be able to speak freely, even if it is against the actions of their government and not be subject to arrest, that they should be able to make sure they can move freely throughout their country,” she said.“So President Obama’s policy allows us to be able to press those priorities at the negotiating table.”

She really blew this one unnecessarily, she could have been vague..
Hanging on by a thread. Keeping on supporting Progressives.
clarifying, passingfair.
I wonder if she has to say that in order to keep her job. Maybe she has constituents that migrated from Cuba to Florida and they don't want this to happen. 
Marco Rubio: I will absolutely roll back Obama Cuba policy

But I guess you are correct, Rubio after all is a flip flopper.
