Kid Rock is well known and well liked in Michigan, calling this safe D is beyond partisan hackery

Obviously it remains to be seen whether he is any good as a public speaker, campaigner, or fundraiser but if he is an adept candidate he can and in fact has a decent chance of winning. If he's not a good candidate he will get crushed, Michigan is much more elastic to message then most states.

Tee-hee. Smiley

And he is qualified how? Can anyone give any reasons why he is qualified?
he is a us citizen over the age of 35 that only things you need be qualified I didnt hear democrats bitching about al franken and I considered him qualified.

Al Franken went to harvard...

 and has proven himself a very effective and knowledgeable senator, which even his ideological opponents admit.

I know we should be taking Kid Rock's run seriously, but should we really be thinking he has a chance? He's going up against a popular democrat incumbent in an anti-trump midterm and who is someone who won by 21 points last election.

Thank you!

The analysis here, like the analysis everywhere saying take Kid Rock seriously is essentially this. Donald Trump, despite all his buffoonery, sexism, and repeated decades-long demonstration that he says and the Sphinx really really nasty offensive things, still beat a mainstream well-known Democratic woman in a traditionally Democratic state. Therefore Anything is Possible.

Which I suppose is true. After all then, could simply be hit by a meteor crashing to Earth which is after all technically possible. And the governor could appoint Kid Rock as the interim senator who would then run as an incumbent. It's still possible after all.

Or, Trump's win against Clinton who is a skin of the teeth fluke which most Blue Collar voters are feeling pretty betrayed about Trump stabbing them in the back for typical billionaire policies, Plus even Trump was a better candidate than Kid Rock because the former could at least point two decades worth of a ledge business success and say he would run dysfunctional Washington like a business and make it work. Kid Rock may have made tens of millions by marketing mostly crappy music, but voters aren't going to give him the same benefit of Doubt of well he's made money so he in business so he knows how to run things
