Kid Rock claims he is running for United States Senate. While I am skeptical—

OK, go ahead and get those jokes out. I’ll wait.

Are you good now? Those name jokes are not as funny or original as you think.

—anyway, while I am skeptical that we see a Senator Rock, or even a nominee Rock, in the near future, it’s also not entirely crazy to think that a run for office by Robert James Richtie could be, uh, “So Hott.”

There are many questions to be answered about Rock’s trial balloon. He has been rumored, semi-jokingly, as a candidate for the Senate race in 2018 in his home state of Michigan.
