FILE - In this Jan. 25, 2011 file-pool photo, President Barack Obama delivers his State of the Union address on Capitol Hill in Washington. Is Â?strongÂ? losing its strength? Presidents of both parties have long felt compelled to sum up the state of the union with a descriptive word or two in their State of the Union addresses. Mostly the same word. For many years now, Â?strongÂ? has been the go-to adjective. Vice President Joe Biden is at left, House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio is at right. (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais, File-Pool)

In this Oct. 12, 2013, file photo, from left, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL), Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY), President Barack Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA), meet in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington. When Obama delivers his State of the Union address on Jan. 28, 2014, he isn't just setting out his own agenda. He's also delivering an opening salvo in the yearlong fight for control of Congress. Although not explicitly political, the speech will frame an economic argument that Democrats hope will appeal to voters across the country. (AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster, File)
