As far as I’m concerned, if a recording artist has their music registered with ASCAP, then any political candidate should be able to play their songs as they would be paying royalties to do so.

Exactly. Heart (Nancy and Ann Wilson) had a conniption fit when Palin used to play their “Barracuda” song.

I agree. However, many of these candidates are playing the songs without paying the royalty and hoping they get away with it which is theft. I am glad that many musical groups are fighting back. It is not any candidates right to steal from these musical groups at all.
