The president’s address comes one night after his potential GOP rivals for the 2012 election held a debate in California. Thursday’s Morning Line wrapped up the Republican debate and previewed the stakes the president’s speech:

It is a moment that will require the president to call on his skills as an orator — as he has done at key junctures in the past — if he is to be successful at making the case for his vision at a time when the unemployment rate is stuck above 9 percent and polls show six in 10 Americans unhappy with his stewardship of the economy.

David Chalian and Gwen Ifill also previewed the speech in this week’s Political Checklist.
