Politico's Michael Calderone observed the periodical overkill, and pointed me at this great, satirical cover and story from The Onion:
WASHINGTON-According to a poll released Monday by Teen Zogby!, both Barack Obama's approval and dreaminess ratings among slumber party–attending tweens have risen to 82 percent following last week's publication of the Tiger Beat cover pictorial "Hangin' With Barack!"
