Which era of Elvis should George Clooney play?

It was recently announced that TNT has greenlighted a new TV series produced by George Clooney.  The show is called "Delta Blues" and centers on a Memphis cop who also impersonates Elvis part time.

Typcially, in the Elvis impersonator industry a performer will specialize in one particular version of Elvis  (the 1950's, the 1968 black leather, or the 1970's jumpsuit), with each era having its appropriate attire and musical catalog.

(For a complete initiation into the world of Elvis impersonators, check out the classic documentary on the topic: Almost Elvis)

So if Clooney himself steps into the lead role on this new TV series, the burning question is: which era of Elvis he should play?

To help give this debate a little focus, I've created some mockups of George Clooney as Elvis Presley in different eras, AND I've created an online poll so that Elvis fans can make their voices heard.

So consider the choices carefully, and get out the vote!

I don't care for the 50's & 60's look but the 70's is OK, except the beard needs to go.
