The White House is even planning for the possibility of a speech outside of Washington. White House officials told Fox News they essentially are preparing for two tracks for next week's speech. “There are many ways he can deliver the State of the Union address,” Gidley said on "America's Newsroom." The White House and Pelosi have time to figure things out. Pelosi’s letter to the White House comes as the shutdown, the longest in history, has left more than 800,000 federal employees and contractors without pay.
