Absolutely NOT the governor! We are trying to rid Washington of RINOs, not elect them.

Kid Rock is a smart guy who has seen a lot over the years. He’s not my first choice for Senate, but I’d vote for him over Stabenow in a minute. I met Stabenow when I was in College. She’s dumb as a box of rocks.

Lets see his accomplishments:
Music rating system invented because of his profane lyrics.
Dated porn stars.
Biggest music hit was a ripoff.
Yeah that’s the ticket?

To: FreedomGuru
Yep that is the ticket.
Screw you pearl clutching whiny assed pussies.
American Bad Ass Baby.
Hell lets add Ted to the senate, never mind Kid.
To: FreedomGuru
What are his principles, are they reliable? Will he support the Trump administration? Can he be bought or blackmailed?
Those are the only important questions. I couldn’t care less that he has no political experience. In many ways that’s a feature, not a bug.
To: nickcarraway; All
No and stupid idea.
Whoever came up with this idea should be immediately fired.
To: Popman
Exactly, who wants to risk being screwed over by an amateur politician? We need a professional politician to do that!
Really, if we arent going to bother to conserve the same methods that we have used to screw the citizens of this country over for over 100 years then why even bother to call ourselves conservatives?

“There are plenty better qualified potential candidates to run for that seat that have never been.”
May be true, but most likely will all lose. I’m a precinct delegate in MI, just attended the state convention. Not a peep about a serious candidate to run against her. If the pubs don’t put up a serious candidate and fund him/her hugely, they have zero chance. ZERO. Someone like kid rock or Ted Nugent would definitely move the needle. I’m not saying they’re great candidates. I’m saying we have no chance trotting some no name out there against the well established and well funded Stabenow. Hell, I might as well run!

Just.... no.
"When I was a kid and my parents started talking about politics, I'd run to my room and put on the Rolling Stones as loud as I could. So when I see all these rock stars up there talking politics, it makes me sick. If you're listening to a rock star in order to get your information on who to vote for, you're a bigger moron than they are. Why are we rock stars? Because we're morons. We sleep all day, we play music at night and very rarely do we sit around reading the Washington Journal." - Alice Cooper

I don’t know if Kid Rock legally changed his name to that but one punk rocker once ran for mayor of San Francisco under his stage name.Jello Biafra of the Dead Kennedys ran (real name Eric Boucher) and came in fourth out of 7 candidates I think.Then in the final election I believe Dianne Feinstein won.Afterwards a law was passed saying candidates must run under their Christian (born) name.(Another candidate was Sister Boom Boom).
In recent elections a guy with a boot on his head, Vermin Supreme, ran for President.

Let's see...Larry Kudlow is thinking about the Senate for CT, Carl Edwards is thinking about running and Kid Rock? Interesting....
Of course, they would be more qualified than Franken...

Precisely. I think it’s great. What is it our esteemed senators do that Kid wouldn’t be able to understand, but Al Franken does?
Our Founding Fathers would wretch at the term ‘professional politicians ‘. They envisioned a nation run by businessmen who took a brief time out to serve, out of patriotism. Then they return to the Real World from whence they came.
Professional politicians are what’s wrong with us.
