For the U.S., the presidential race is close. Many people on this site wonder why. A recent poll goes with that, saying that Brits prefer Obama over Romney by a 10-to-1 margin. Their primary complaint comes from Bush's War on Terror, and knee jerk reactions to conflict, and Romney's harsh criticism on England's ability to hold the Olympic Games, a tour in England which the paper regarded as a "public relations disaster."
France and Germany also ally with Obama.
