Well, since we have a left wing government at the moment, the general concensus is pretty positive. A lot of people don't think he'll survive his presidency, or if he does, it'll be a matter of luck (or good security).

A lot of us are asking ourselves when we'll have a non-white or indigenous leader.

I think it's very much the same sort of thinking over here as there and that is mainly that anyone would be better than Bush, and Obama is an excellent speaker, so hopefully he will be an excellent president.
