		<description><![CDATA[Candidate Obama is back. In his State of the Union address, he was more forceful, eloquent and shrewdly misdirecting than he has been since 2008. In the history of the American political cycles, President/candidate Obama may have more successfully evaded accountability for a failed economy than any president in history.
