Steelers’ owner stumps for Obama in Wheeling WV
Rooney termed Obama “a terrific guy” and explained why Obama is the only candidate he ever has endorsed — other than his son, Jim Rooney, who ran for state Senate in Pennsylvania.
“He has integrity and is motivated to bringing young people into the process,” Rooney said of Obama. “You get a chance once in every 50 years to elect someone with the leadership of Barack Obama.
“I’ve met him,” Rooney added. “His wife is a fine young woman, and he has a young family. He’s just like us. He’s anything but elitist.”
