Appearing on PBS's Charlie Rose Tuesday night following President Obama's State of the Union address, Bloomberg View columnist Al Hunt praised it as "one of the best speeches of his presidency" and "remarkably effective," before admitting: "I don't think he's going to get much done....This is not a cycle where you get much done.

Rose interjected: "So then the point is to reassert the debate." Hunt replied: "The debate is going to take place over the next two years leading up to the presidential election and I think he set the predicate tonight that was very advantageous for Democrats."
