What was your overall impression of the president's State of the Union address?

Positive

36%

35818 votes

Negative

64%

62920 votes
....and it seems consistent with other polls and with our small number of votes in the poll on this thread.....<b>and.....unlike the tiny poll sampling emphasized in cnn's "story", it displays the results of 100,000 votes......</b>so, I'm sorry....I am missing your point....
