At the time when Barack Obama was elected in 2008, the country was in the midst of a big recession (the economy was very bad); people were frustrated by the Iraq War, and they did not feel that President Bush and the Republicans had done a good job handling issues like Hurricane Katrina. The country was ready for a change, and many voters also were excited to elect America's first black president. The Republican candidate for president, John McCain, while admired as a war hero, was seen as someone who would continue Bush's now-unpopular policies. So, Barack Obama and the Democrats benefited from the anti-Republican and anti-Bush mood in the country.
