Umm...

It is a point often raised about all levels of American politics: that there is no candid conversation, only bland talking points mixed with warm and fuzzy optimism. Sen. Barack Obama clearly is above such generic speaking and demonstrates the toughness and sharpness that any good president should have.

Discuss. Being above "generic optimism" is not the descriptor I would've used for Obama.

i agree that obama does play the vague optimism game, but hes actually really sharp. take a look at some of his longer and more in depth interviews. there was one with the editorial staff of a newspaper (i forget which one) that was particularly good. you may not agree with him, but hes a very intelligent guy.
