    Are you Freaking Kidding me!!!!!
    DocRags says (28 Feb '12)

    President Obama bailes out Chrysler and GM saving them and your gonna support Romney for President. "ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME". Chrysler has already stated that there was no private equity (including Bain Capital) that would step in which would allow them to file chapter 11 to reorganize, instead they would have to file chapter 7 which means total liquidation. The ripple effect with suppliers, etc. would have devistated this state. I recieved more money in unemployment checks, and many extensions trying to find a job in the automotive field because of President Obama and the Democrats in Congress, And you support Romney! Must of been more worried more about a possible 4% tax increase instead of the people of Michigan and your fans. Well, I'm sure you won't miss me, but this fan you lost! I won't listen to your music agian, let alone spend one more dollar on you. To me, you exposed the fake you actually are. What a sellout!

All I have to say is that Kid Rock has more talent in his pinky than most artists have in their entire bodies. He is a talented singer/songwriter/musician and NO ONE can honestly say that he isn't. KR haters, get the hell off of his website. He is all about the music, Michigan, Detroit and America. "Red, white and blue down to my soul and if you don't like that you can take your punk ass home........"one of my favorite Kid Rock lines.

In this day and age it is assumed that you are supporting someone when you perform for them and they are using one of your songs in their campaign. You don't have to actually 'say' anything, but the media and the public will take it to be a fact. And, there is a big difference between performing for a candidate and performing for a president. When it is a candidate, it is because they want your name associated with their campaign and it tends to state that you are supporting the person. It is considered to be an honor to be asked to perform for the President of the United States. In doing so you are, in turn, honoring the office. You might not support the person who is in that office at that time, no matter who he or she might be. Just my 2 cents worth, which is worth much less!

With all due respect, Kid Rock has not endorsed anyone. He performed yes, but endorsed NO! Kid Rock performed because Mitt Romney asked him to and because he (Kid Rock) is a nice guy, just the same as Johnny Cash entertained just about every President we've ever had since Nixon, that doesn't mean he endorsed them. They're true blooded Americans who love this country and just want to do some good. That is in no way, shape or form an "endorsement." Until you have a video of Kid Rock himself saying he's endorsing Romney - It's just another rumor! Kid Rock quotes:
"I truly believe that people like myself, who are in a position of entertainers in the limelight, should keep their mouth shut on politics," he told CMT Insider. "Because at the end of the day, I'm good at writing songs and singing. What I'm not educated in is the field of political science. And so for me to be sharing my views and influencing people of who I think they should be voting for ... I think would be very irresponsible on my part."
Rock went on to say that celebrity endorsements actually "hurt politicians."
"As soon as somebody comes out for a politician, especially in Hollywood, when they all go, 'I'm voting for this guy!' – I go, 'That's not who I'm voting for!'" Rock said in the 2008 interview.
- In fact, since he believes that celebrity endorsements Hurt politicians one could actually say he is doing the opposite of endorsing Romney, of course, I would hope he's not endorsing Obama either!

The fact that people got $28 bucks an hour to do a factory job is exactly why you are out of work... WAKE UP MORON...

Hey DALE3, the unions worked with management and gave up alot. Jobs that once paid $28/hr now pay $14/hr, not to mention benefits. Oh, I beleive the UAW now handles their own retirement plans. The Unions did their part to save jobs, and the Auto Companies are doing very well now and bringing jobs back to Michigan and the USA. The unions didnt get in the way of private equity. Instead of spouting off a baseless remark, explian how the Unions blocked private equity from putting money into Chrysler Bankrupcy. I could really care less about any opinions about my post. I stated my opinion about "the Kid" supporting a guy who does make money sometimes breaking up companies and selling them off. Did Mitt say let GoldmanSachs or any of the banks go bankrupt? Kid Rock is entitled to his own opinion, and I stated mine. Live with it.

Eric has spoken or typed, I no longer am a republican or a fan of KR. Just kidding honestly, if Kid had endorsed any democrat, no one would have posted, and they call us sheep.

Well gotta run and go find some artists' fan website and call the artist a 'talentless douche bag.

DocRags you need to check out the other side Dude . This country is about people not big government. I think it's people like you that want to ruin it because your unhappy and bitter.I feel your pain but if your still drawing unemployment did the bail out really help. Also your wrong about private investors they were lined up but the unions were in the way. Hope you find work soon

Wow amazing how quickly everyone forgets all that Kid Rock has done for Detroit. Not Obama and certainly not Congress. Apparantly you forget how our automotive industry was treated by both the President and The Congress. Lecturing Detroit and telling them how they should do business. Yet when it comes to a bank bailout no problem. Get over it. Congress both democrat and Republican is a joke they have done absolutely nothing for Detroit except to destroy it. How many unemployed, homeless and foreclosures do we have? Not to mention the rising cost of gas. Last time I checked Kid Rock was Born Free and has the right to support whichever candidate he chooses just as you have that same right. None of us are judging you so please do not judge a man who has done more for Detroit than anyone in recent years.

Eric - Please enlighten us what "decent music" is....

And why are you on his fansite if he's such a "talentless dbag"?

Raprite and Just Because - great posts! Totally agree with both of you.

I guess we're only suppose to associate with those who share our beliefs and political views. According to these idiots, anyway. So, if your best friend is republican and you are democrat end that relationship now!!!! How could you possibly share any common interests with someone of the opposite party? How could you even care about this so called friend if he/she supports opposite ideals?

I mean really, How idiotic are these people? Do I like Kid Rock because he may be republican? No. I don't care what his politics are. I like his music, his sense of humor, his take on life and his BIG ole heart! Now, we all have our opinions, yours just happens to be wrong! Ha.

Please, give me a fucking break. Is anyone so shallow that they would leave their fanhood over a political choice? Until the puppet masters who are pulling the strings are shut down it means jack shit who's elected. Political office is bought and paid for by the billionaires who lobby the most. I sympathize with the Michigan folks, but the picture is a lot fucking bigger. Get a fucking life, get off Kid's ass and go be a supporter for your candidate. Your wasting time bitching about stupid shit.

I am a huge fan of Kid Rock! I love his music and I love how he supports our troops and I love all the fantastic things he does for Detroit! That being said, I am both shocked and saddened that he would endorse Romney, who clearly has no interest or concern for all the things Kid seems to hold so dear. It just doesn't make any sense to me. Disappointed and hoping he has a change of heart.

kidrockangel's picture

Sorry but I think thats ridiculous.. As A republican, I didnt throw a hissy when he performed at Obamas innaug ball... The man is a musician and his personal politics have nothing to do with his shareing of his music. Grow up, Live and let live.. Truly people, enjoy the music and support your candidate whoever it is, but stop hating on anyone who may or may not agree with you for whatever reason...

heathernub's picture

I agree - am disgusted that he would put his name behind someone who literally said "let detroit go bankrupt" so sad to see Kid Rock put all the work he does into Michigan/Detroit and with this one move - he is going to lose a lot of credibility

kidrockangel's picture

AND NO OFFENSE but maybe you arent going to find a job in Mich iun the automotive industry for many years. MAYBE you will have to find a different job, maybe even somewhere else. Hope the unemployment checks helped you but it might be time to move on!!!!!
