LIVE Blog & Video Feed: State of the Union

Patch will be live-blogging tonight's State of the Union speech by President Barack Obama, and we'll be bringing you insights from your neighbors from across the political spectrum.

Coverage of the speech started at 6 p.m.

As a bonus, the White House has offered to answer a few questions submitted by Patch users across the nation after tonight's speech. We don't know who in the administration will speak, but it's a great opportunity to take your question right to Washington without leaving home.

The result will look something like this video of first lady Michelle Obama answering a fitness question.

To submit your question, post it in the comments below with your real name, the town where you live and, if you'd like, your Twitter handle.

We'll consider questions posted only AFTER the president finishes his speech. You have until 11 a.m. Wednesday to post your question.

And finally, a note to our friends who are coming to Patch on a mobile browser. If you can't see our live blog, you can use this link to follow the conversation on your phone's RSS reader.
