SOTU--The Next Morning

Fantastic turnout for the Live-blog last night, thanks. We were treated to a tour d'force in political denial. President Obama seems to have ignored virtually every useful lesson from the drubbing his side has taken lately in order to come out more defiant, more convinced of his rectitude, and more convinced that the problem has been that we simply were not well communicated to. His political preening was notable--after having led an incredibly nasty, highly politically charged healthcare campaign, he decries the nastiness and politicization of Washington. Finally, his continuing to blame the previous Administration for all his problems has gone past the point of being useful or informational. It is now simply a throw-away line. I think this man and his party are in deep trouble come November. As you come across interesting reviews of the President's speech, post them in the comment section for others to check out.
