State of the Union Reaction

Obama was phenomenal tonight, in my view. He mixed in policy proposals from all over the political spectrum. He was pugnacious, winning, honest, and sharp. He was also politically in tune with the public.

Can it move the gridlocked Congress? Hard to say. But I can't imagine anyone else in his role that I'd trust more to get the job done.
