Germany is in love with Barak Obama. They believe he will bring a change to American Politics and if elected, it will not be business as usual. There have been so many attacks against Obama. It calls to mind the "Obama Girls" I think it was meant as a slur and to drag him down.
Look at what it did to Harold Ford of Tennessee. They said he was at a party with blonde girls and he lost the election. Obama is the headline in Germany as "Lincoln, Kennedy and Obama".
I have read newspapers from all over the world and they speak warmly of Obama and wish there will be a change in U S politics. The world is looking for a change.
