Chicago Bears Coach Lovie Smith filmed an ad for President Barack Obama's re-election campaign, encouraging African American voters to turn out at the polls. It sounded a lot like how he talked about Jay Cutler and Caleb Haney last season, so let's hope Obama fares better.

“Our future’s looking bright because I trust the man who will be leading us into the future. And that man is Barack Obama,” Lovie said. "I have the President's back, it's up to us as African Americans to show that we have his back also." Lovie then points voters to visit AfricanAmericans.BarackObama.com.
