Global ‘enthusiasm’ for Bush’s departure.

The 2008 U.S. elections are attracting an “eager” audience worldwide. This past week, for example, major British newspapers “devoted more than 87 pages to news of the U.S. primaries, including 22 front-page stories.” Much of the enthusiasm, according to the Washington Post, is for the end of the Bush presidency:

But much of the enthusiasm comes from anticipation of President Bush’s departure, according to several analysts. U.S. prestige and popularity in much of the world have sunk to historic lows since Bush took office, over such issues as the Iraq war and climate change. Many analysts said the election has created high expectations that the new president will be more in tune with the rest of the world.

Sounds like an Our Gang style reunion: Fred, Mitt, Rudy, Mike, Ron and John... each more Bush-like than Bush himself! More Gitmo! More tax cuts! Watch me! More wars!

The expectations are that a Democrat will win. So watch Georgie and Dick wreck up as much stuff as possible as they leave ala Poppy's invasion into Somalia as he handed things over to Clinton...

That and consider the Rovian projection about the fake stories of sabotage of keyboards, etc as Clinton handed over to Georgie, prepare for some nasty shit as Georgie hands off to a Democrat.
