I don't think everyone is getting sidetracked. He spoke--broadly of course-- (how much time did he have?? 10 - 15 minutes??) in themes. Presidents do this when they give their state of the union address as well. Have you ever watched a senate congressional hearing or read a bill that is up for vote? That's the substance, and I can tell ya, for most people it makes pretty dull TV. The networks do all of the behind the scenes looks, trot out all of the commentators to make it interesting for most people. It's not a Dem or a Repub thing. It's an American thing.
