No, I know what you are saying. It was aimed at people who are not political junkies like we are. They do not realize it is all pap.

I understand Obama overused the 'emphatic whisper'. What was that all about?

This was a very good SotU speech from a political standpoint.

I'm not sure that it will get him anymore votes. It will certainly rally his fans and it will also piss off his established opponents. I don't think it will move any of the "undecideds".

I think that only political junkies would watch the SOTU anyway and they are decided. one way or another already.

He may have said politically good things, but I just don't think it matters.
