A random sample of voters polled by CNN, both before and after President Obama's State of the Union address, give the president a virtual standing ovation.

That's a total of 81 percent approval—51 percent very positive and 30 percent somewhat positive. The president also significantly shifted the needle on support for the policies he talked about Tuesday night. From January 16-19, CNN polled the group and found majority support for the president's policies; 57 percent thought those policies would move the country in the right
direction. That ballooned to 72 percent after they watched the speech. Some prominent Republicans were not so impressed.
