I think it's way too early in Obama's career for him to have earned the Peace Prize. And there's the issue of Afghanistan, where it's not at all clear his decisions will improve the chances for peace.
Maybe the committee awarded him the Peace Prize for running a good enough presidential campaign to beat McCain and spare the world the disasters a McCain Administration would cause.
