Personally I did not watch because I cannot stand to watch another liberal head-fake speech that won't be backed by real action.

Personally I plan to vote for Alan Grayson for President because he is a liberal and Barack Obama is not.

Those choices weren't on the poll even though this is my hometown paper, I won't DU it.

What do you think?

Did President Obama's latest State of the Union speech make you more likely to vote for him in November?

Yes. The platform he outlined - tax fairness, help for struggling homeowners, bringing U.S. jobs back from overseas, green energy, etc. - is exactly what America needs. (53 responses)

36%

No. It was just more class warfare and big-government solutions from Obama. It made me more determined than ever to vote against him. (24 responses)

16%

I'm voting for him regardless. I didn't need to hear the speech to know Obama would keep fighting for the middle class. A win by any of his Republican challengers would be a disaster. (46 responses)

31%

I'm voting against him, regardless. He's grown government, deepened the debt, prolonged the recession and weakened the U.S. There's nothing he could have said to make me support him. (25 responses)
