Ok, the GOP got screwed when the put up Jindal to give a "response" to Obama's first major speech, and had the response written before ever knowing what Obama was going to say. Jindal sucked in the delivery, and was castigated for it.

Now comes Obama's first State of the Union, and what do they do? Prop up the VA governor who literally looks like he's seeing the speech on the teleprompter for the first time. I know that not everyone has speaking skills like Obama, but this is embarrassing. A "response" that doesn't actually respond to anything Obama had to say, and a room full of sycophants that some how almost "know" when they're supposed to applaud.

Wacky, who would've thought the Dems would've been better at political gamesmanship than the GOP?

Should have been this one:

MSNBC's Chris Matthews says President Barack Obama has done so much to heal racial divisions that he "forgot he was black" while watching his State of the Union address.
