It made perfect sense for Obama to add Europe to the Mideast trip he was goaded into taking in the first place.
He signaled to the Europeans that a new era will begin in European-American relations no matter who the new president is. The Bush years did a lot of damage but they're nearly over.
If McCain had thought to do it you'd all be drooling with admiration.

Wrong my friend very wrong. If McCain went:
McCain would be drooling and the Obamatrons would be lauging in admiration at the many You Tube videos.
Our candidates shouldn't be campaigning in Europe or elsewhere in the world. It's a U.S. election and there should be no foreign influence. Frankly, I don't care about Europe. Europe overall, with a few countries being excepted, disgusts me, and not just politically.

Is there a changing of the guard soon to take place?
The dollar has lost roughly a quarter of its purchasing power against the currencies of major U.S. trading partners from its peak in 2002.
The loss of the dollar's purchasing power and international respect has some experts worrying that the euro might one day replace the dollar as the so-called primary reserve currency. And that could trigger a dollar rout as foreign governments and international investors flee from U.S. Treasury bonds and other dollar-denominated investments.

Mircea posted an excellent summary of the Council on Foreign Affairs' report on the oil situation at the "McCain Admits We Went to Iraq for Oil" thread, on page 4 I think.
