Heh! I don't think we're being set up to root for the Cylons, considering that the first action we see one of them perform is to watch Six snap a baby's neck (and I find the religious fanaticism and the justification of genocide and the destruction of billions of innocent lives another reason NOT to root for the Cylons' "loving and compassionate" god. Because s/he may be compassionate towards the Cylons, but I'm not really seeing where the teachings of this god lead them to be compassionate towards others.)
And is being an alcoholic (Tigh) really deserving of death? What about characters like Cally, Billy, Dualla, or my dear Captain Apollo? What have they done that's so bad we'd be rooting for their enemies to kill them?
So, interesting thought, but I just don't think we're being led that way.
