    Loved this article...

    And, in case anyone hadn't noticed, Barack is pretty damn hot too. It's called attitude. And intelligence. And self-assurance. And those eyes. All of which matter so much more than biceps and abs, unless you're simply looking at pictures and never plan to have a conversation.

    They promised change, and one thing they're changing is what we'll think of as sexy. That's a good thing.
