Again, why couldn't he have done all of this before the election?  I feel like at least Udall and Hagan could have won if Obama had done all of this stuff in the weeks before the election.

It should be obvious what event Obama was waiting for before he would share this news. It happened this week.

Does Obama need the approval of Congress to end the embargo or can he just sign an executive order?

Congress has to pass a repeal. Republican Party is clearly not ready for that even though there are many who would be happy to junk it and are public about it.

American business already going back to the pre-revolution mentality, with Catepillar CEO declaring that Puerto Rico will become 51st state and Cuba the 52nd state: http://www.cnbc.com/id/102288738

Wow, that is a super-helpful quote from Caterpillar.
