The craze over PresidentBarack Obama as he visited five European countries in early April of 2009. He also visited Iraq, but was greeted there by a car bomb.
Similar to Obamania except that it is felt by non-Americans, hence the 'á'
Matt: Wow! Those Europeans sure are going crazy for Obama.
Jake: Yeah, it looks like they've got a case of Obamania.

related to, but different from, to save your sinking Titanic:
a) to be concerned, at any and all costs, about your own political legacy when you leave political office, even if said legacy may be a negative one
b) to save your political legacy before saving the decadent morality of your own political party
if you're Barack Obama, G-d may only know how to even try to save your Obamatanic, both definitions a) and b) in the aftermath of the 2016 presidential election
I can't even believe how badly I was duped. I should have been seriously skeptical of something sounding too good to be true. I should have done my research. But the whole nation had Obamania!
