Can the GOP butthurt, for chrissakes. The Republican party handed this to Obama, among many other things.
To be honest, while probably premature, there is sense to this.
As the only remaining superpower, a president who believes in international cooperation and offering hope to the world rather than a closed fist is basically everything the sane world would ever ask for out of the President of the United States. Obama's policies were already outlined well before he was in office. Just by defeating McCain, Obama did far more to restore the vision of a community of brother nations than some previous holders of the NPP have.
