This is Obama's second Men's Vogue cover. He has an 8 page feature.

The best thing about this issue is the feature on Robert Hughes.

The mag is 252 pages... if anybody cares... I know you don't

Aw, really? I loved his first Vogue cover, and I don't mind this one. I guess I fall for his charms too easily, lol.

WTF? Didn't he just have a cover like 2 months ago? Talk about working overtime for hinm Vogue. They're probably on his campaign payroll or something.

Let's wait a minute. Obama had a Men's Vogue cover in 2006.

That was over two years ago. Men's Vogue has frequently given face time to other politicians - John Edwards had a cover as well, it's not rare for men's magazines to feature political mainstays as well as actors / journalists / athletes. Two covers is in the span of two years is nothing compared to the amount of time their sister publication devotes to their repetitious roster of favored actresses.

As for the political leanings of Conde Nast as a corporate entity that verges into debate that is almost too big for tFS.

Precisely! Has McCain had a cover? If he hasn't, I'm sure it's more to do with his degenerated looks (well, he is much older) than political affiliation.

Anyway, I like Obama's newest cover. He knows how to ~work~ it for the camera (hence the existence of lolobama and obama_daily on livejournal).
