"Does anyone know the law in these situations? I think Michele Bachmann should stop playing the washed up, lefty loser’s lousy music anyway, but can he force her to?"

Nope he can't do squat if she has a legal copy of the music and she pays the associated fees for public performance of the piece.

Its part of the Copyright Law and Little Tommy has no say whatsoever. He can ask but he can't legally force her to stop playing it.

Thanks. So are these lawsuits simply filed as public relations tactics to try to get the candidates to voluntarily stop playing the music?
