Among the older Cuban expatriates (first-generation immigrants) it won't play well. Most of the younger (second-generation and beyond) Cuban-Americans I've talked to either don't care or oppose the embargo as counterproductive (i.e. the Communist Party can blame the US embargo for its belly-up economy rather than its own corruption and incompetence).

As others have pointed out, if we can have diplomatic relations and free trade with China, there's nothing but political pandering to a (shrinking) constituency driving the embargo on Cuba.
