Why did Obama win?

I usually do not mention politics on this blog, but today I am due for an exception. Yesterday night, Barack Obama became the 44th President-elect of the United States of America.
I am not going to discuss this because the States are such an influential player in world politics, so influential that their decisions often have a decisive impact for most other countries involved in alliances, wars, or treaties with them. I am going to discuss it because, although it now seems inevitable that Obama should win this election, it was in fact not so.
