by Curtis Gilbert, Minnesota Public RadioSt. Paul, Minn. — When President Barack Obama gives his first speech before a joint session of Congress tonight, it won't technically be billed as a "State of the Union" address, but Obama will likely use part of his speech to assess how America is doing.

Minnesota Public Radio's Curtis Gilbert spent yesterday asking Minnesotans how they would describe the state of the union.
