Jobs Still Top Priority for White House
While unrest in Egypt continues to dominate the headlines, First Read notes that "the White House has quickly pivoted to jobs after the president's State of the Union," keeping the focus on domestic politics.

"This week, the Obama administration will be holding several events tied to Obama's call for innovation. And today, the White House is launching what it calls 'Startup America' -- an effort to promote entrepreneurship across the country."

Meanwhile, congressional Republicans may be missing the mark according to the AP, "using their new House majority to push for a repeal of President Obama's health care law and for restrictions on abortions, and to highlight other social issues important to their most conservative supporters."
