‘American Bad A**’… Senator? Kid Rock Surges Ahead in Race for Michigan Senate

Kid Rock – the rude, crude, whisky swigging, permanently vest bedecked, redneck wild man of popular music – is running for the US Senate in Michigan in 2018. Moreover, Rock – real name Robert James Ritchie – now leads incumbent Debbie Stabenow by four percent in the polls, raising the hairs and eyebrows of political analysts in Washington.
Kid Rock, of “American Bad A**” fame, announced his political bid in July, releasing a statement slamming his democratic opponent, and suggesting “hard-working Americans” were tired of politicians “like her” and “their bulls***!”
Dismissed by many as a publicity stunt at best and hoax at worst, current polls show he beat Stabenow in a hypothetical head-to head match-up, if it were held now — his support stands at 30 percent to the serving Senator’s 26 percent, while 44 percent of voters remain undecided.
While some US political figures couldn’t contain their excitement at the news, others — in particular, Stabenow’s campaign team — are likely scouring Kid Rock’s history of controversial statements, and discography, for dirt.
Even a cursory glance will turn up a great bounty — over the course of Ritchie’s three-decade career, he has written a panoply of songs about drug use, drinking and sexual exploits, often with prostitutes and strippers.
