Obama's Jobs Speech Reached 31 Million Viewers

From PolitcalWire I hear that Obama reached thirty one million viewers with his Jobs Speech. It was a good one for them to tune into in my opinion. In it he made passionate and commensense appeals to the very idea of good government, and he wisely pitched his proposals and identified problems in widely accessible terms.

(Yes, of course I have disagreements and quibbles with the address and its politics, but I heard more good than bad in it and some of the good I heard was desperately needed and I do hope and even think it might yield some good results, so there you go.)
