Now that you mention it, you're right. The entire world (with a few exceptions) was pretty much rooting for Obama. I can normally deal with it but this year it was bad. I saw this quote from Orson Scott Card (writer of Enders Game) and I thought it was kind of creepy...
"America is at the end of its republic. Just as the Roman Senate and consuls became incapable of ruling their widespread holdings and fighting off their enemies, so America's antiquated Constitution is a joke. Bureaucrats and courts make most of the decisions, while the press decides which Presidents will have enough public support to govern."
