...drink of the Obama kool-aid, that is:

The bounce comes almost entirely from those in the president’s party. Sixty-four percent (64%) of Democrats now Strongly Approve, up from 50% before the speech. However, the speech appears to have had the opposite impact on unaffiliated voters. Among those not affiliated with either major party, 50% now Strongly Disapprove. That’s up from 42% before the speech. The next few days should give an indication as to whether these changes will fade or if they signify the beginning of a new phase in the political environment.
In other words, he shored up his base a bit, at the expense of even more independents. Doh! And who would like to bet against the Dems who came home being almost all loony-left who didn't think he'd gone leftward enough?
Nope, the way I see this, he's even more screwed than before the Sotu. Nice work, Plouffe.
