Last night, President Obama delivered a memorable State of the Union address, touching on numerous issues ranging from equal pay for women to climate change. While the speech was undoubtedly one of Obama’s finest, the big question is whether or not he will be able to deliver on it. Ring of Fire’s Mike Papantonio discusses this with Ed Schultz.

will Democrats, both elected and on the internet, help President Obama deliver on the bold SOTU promises; or will they 2014 (i.e., run away from) him? And will the good liberals of the internet allow them to?

The Democratic Congress (Nancy) passed for President Bush. If I recall, it was most everything he asked for. Ok a few judges were turned down....big deal. Social Security was stopped by his own party (thankfully). So why doesn't anyone ever mention that?
