"We are not quitters":Presidential scholars and journalists compared President Obama's speech before a joint session of Congress to FDR's fireside chats, calling it a command performance and the boldest and best speech of its kind in a long time. The President explained his policies and the reasons for them clearly and Americans understood--support for the Obama economic plan shot up to 80% in one snap poll, and the President's approval rating increased in all polls and focus groups. This speech will be talked about for a long time, including here. For now, some of the poll results are here, here and here. The video and text of the speech are here.
