It’s time once again to show your love for Obama — or at least the biggest Obamateurism this week!  We’ll only get one leader, which means we’ll have four trailers, but at least it beats gutters.  In the end, we’ll just export the losers and let the winner take a bow in the finals, so if you love an OOTD, be sure to vote for it!
