Where will the President address you?

President Bush will deliver his final State of the Union address tonight, an event that some will watch with sadness and other with glee. We here at The Saratogian, regardless of our political views, will be tearing our hair out, as we struggle to meet an 11 p.m. deadline on a speech that might not end until 10:30 p.m.

So, let's start the coverage early. How are you going watch this historic speech? Gathering with friends in front of the TV to applaud with the members of congress and hang on his every word? Staying at home to watch with your family? Heading out to a sports bar that might deign to tune in to CNN for this annual event? Or are you sticking your head in the sand, preferring to let this day pass as any other? Whatever your plans, take a moment and let us know.

And what will the President talk about tonight? Do you think Bush will outline modest goals for his final months in office? Will he speak out on the field of presidential candidates? Will he suggest bold steps to re-invigorate our ailing economy? Will he shock us all and announce an immediate withdrawal from Iraq? Will he make a Giuliani-esqu pitch to extend his term on the grounds that America is at War?

Only time will tell, but whatever your views, take a moment to let us know.
