.......woot i just noticed that's my 4 20 post :p
Well to answer your question. I'm Dutch and in Europe we are talking a lot about US Government and what they are doing and you can believe me, the masses have changed their views from looking up to America under the Clinton-era to seeing American government as the biggest thread on earth, even in England. Besides, the Governments of European countries aren't representive for mass-view on American Government so I think it's even worse then you'll might think.
In Germany they've held elections at the same time when you did and Kerry won by 89%, Nader 2nd by 6%. I don't think Kerry would've been good, but just to indicate his (Bush government) popularity in Europe. And that was 1.5 year ago, right now it's even worse.
