I thought it was pretty good. Light on specifics, but SOTU speeches aren't about that. I'm in "let's wait and see" mode. Maybe he's come to Jesus, like Clinton did.

But the proof is in the pudding. Actions speak far louder than words with this president.

One thing: Not one more dime should be spent on education. We already spend the 2nd most per capita of any nation in the world with diminishing results. Education needs drastic overhaul, not more money thrown at it.

On a side note: Looking at the themes of his speech...

- Cutting spending in some areas
- Increasing "investments" in others
- Education reform
- Entitlement reform
- Promoting American military success
- Extending tax cuts

Its offical... he has morphed into George W. Bush. LOL!
