May have been?

No, left-wing activists will be "OMG leave him alone look at what he's
inherited" meh as an excuse it's worked well for our government here in
the UK for the last ten years. Heh bet that'll be the first bit of
'advice' Brown tries to give him.
> The economy isn't going to pick up any time soon.
But that'll be Bush's fault - boo, hiss!

As has been mentioned the simple fact that he's not Bush will endear him
to the world regardless of what he does next, the bonus that he's young
(comparatively) and seems to recognise that other countries actually exist
will certainly help even if he does produce insular reforms.
