"This year, 82 percent of those who watched the speech said they approve of the president's plans for the economy, up from 53 percent who approved before the speech. Eighty percent said they approved of Mr. Obama's plans for the deficit -- in contrast to 45 percent before the speech. Eighty-three percent approved of Mr. Obama's proposals regarding Afghanistan, which received only a 57 percent approval rating beforehand."

His speech was basically "trust me and I'll give you free crap". Of course that's going to resonate.

First state of the union viewed by 52 million people. Last nights show viewed by 37 million. What percentage of the 37 million viewers were democrats? I couldn't watch. I was having too much fun having someone stick tooth picks in my eye balls.

It just sounded like a cut and paste of his other speeches, but covering all his demographics: Women, check; Hispanics, check; Green Energy, check.

Obama is good at speeches; it is sincerity, action matching the words in his speeches, and telling the truth with which he has problems.

No, his speech was "I'm sick of you right wingers especially the tea party holding up progress, playing political games, and trying to destroy america at every single chance you can. I'm done playing nice, I'm done bending over backwards for you, it's time to stop screwing around, listen to the american people, and get the country back on track."

This is the Obama voters have been waiting for

I found the speech to be a pandering embarrassment, laced with immature language and misplaced humor, not befitting the Office for which this clown infests.

No wonder it resonated with the left.

You've been waiting 3 years for a speach while the rest of us has been waiting for an accomplishment

Tell me Tempest, what is being held up by the GOP? I'm so sick and tired of hearing this babbling nonsense that I ask myself if anyone on the left has a brain and can think for themself, or is the only thing you can do is lie by repeating the talking points we hear from non stop from the left..

This is quite humorous considering 1 posting you claim we are recovering, the next you claim we are holding up the so called recovery.. Make up your mind
