We all know that Steeler Nation doesn’t just exist in and around Pittsburgh. Steeler fans can be found in all corners of the country - even across the world from Ireland to Iraq. While folks in Western PA can go to home games, eat at Jerome’s restaurant, and see Barack Obama at his many stops in the swing state, those of us in the farther corners of Steelers Nation are not so lucky.

Take me, for example. I live about half an hour from Foxboro Stadium. Not only am I surrounded by Patriots fans, but since all of New England is pretty much “safe” it’s unlikely that the Senator will be in my area between now and November.

Now, in the past this would mean no chances to see the Senator, shake his hand, or have him kiss my baby. But the Obama campaign is a movement to change politics, to bring us something new. They will not be constrained by the past, but they will bring innovative solutions to seemingly intractable problems.

This is why I’m proud to introduce yinz to the greatest innovation in political campaigning since the straw hat: Send Barack Your Baby.com.
