22. That's actually a pretty wussy, lawyerly way to say it.
Leave aside that he is playing politics (as everyone who says "I don't want to play politics" surely always is). Obama often says things in a wussy, retiring, stilted way. In debates, or given half a chance on the stump, he slips and channels his inner "Barry." His backers can say it's because he is civilized or positive or whatever. But the acidity of the rhetoric belies that.
