Businessweek Gives You the Obama Catalog You Never Knew You Needed

Leave it to the creative team at Bloomberg Businessweek to find a way to turn the worst fonts on the Internet, the silliest Obama products, and all the president's bundlers into a hilarious cover. Who says they're not having fun over there? And yes, we double-checked and those silly products are most definitely found in the official Obama store (soy candle, tube socksBiden can holder, even the dog sweater). Okay, alright, we're not supposed to judge books by their covers, but with a cover this good, you can't help but give Joshua Green's story Obama's CEO: Jim Messina Has a President to Sell the benefit of the doubt. And, kudos of BBW's editors for not falling back on the old "The Selling of the President" headline that hasn't been fresh since, oh, 1970,

For Green's cover story, head on over to Bloomberg Businessweek.
