GOP eager for potential Kid Rock Senate bid
By Ben Kamisar - 08/27/17 10:30 AM EDT

Kid Rock’s flirtation with a Senate bid has Republicans thinking he could be the party's best shot to win next year's race against Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.).

The rock star — real name Robert Ritchie — would likely dominate the primary field if he entered the race and comes within striking distance of the Democratic incumbent in recent polling.

While most Republicans still believe a bid is unlikely, they are enticed by the prospect of a candidate with deep pockets and universal name identification.

What Ted Nugent said about it on the Frank Beckmann show a few weeks back.

I wouldn't rely too heavily on what Nugent has to say ... Kid Rock has been at least thinking about the idea, last I heard he has decided against it.

He is a conservative.  I have no doubt.  I just don't think he has the knowledge nor the time to devote to the duties of a Senator.  Could you imagine though; Senator Kid Rock??  Lol... the liberal heads would be spinning faster than a 'fidget spinner'!
