I love it how Republicans keep using rock and pop on the campaign trail to prove their populism... |
|
...despite the fact that 95% of the artists themselves are Democrats and/or hate the Republican party. Hilarious.

5. They should follow their slogan: "Country First"... |
|
...and leave the rock artists the hell alone.

8. Until the country artists start shutting them out too. |
|
As I said above, Willie Nelson told them no already. I think we can assume the Dixie Chicks are out of the question. Johnny Cash's estate took him off their playlist. Even Toby Keith claims to be supporting Obama. How many country singers can they actually get on their side?
