SOTU a home run with the public

President Obama's State of the Union a big hit with voters

Very good numbers for a significantly progressive agenda.

Battle for the Middle Class

O stresses middle class

Transcript

Yes, yes. I know.

"Call no man happy until he is dead."

And call no president excellent until his time in office is over.

But O right now is on track to be one of the progressive greats.

He has not taken us as far into reform as many of the "professional left" would have preferred, and they have not been shy about saying so.

He has done nothing, really, to draw back from America's far-flung military and other global commitments.

Perhaps he could not have.

And people had the same complaints about FDR and LBJ, in their day.

All the same, FDR and LBJ are the two greatest progressive presidents to date, and O is on track to join them in America's historic penthouse.
