Mitt Romney campaign

It was announced on December 7, 2011, that Republican hopeful Mitt Romney would use the song as his campaign theme song.[3] Kid Rock subsequently issued a statement saying "He and anyone else who wants to use my song do not need my permission. I said he could use it and I would say the same for any other candidate."[4]

On February 27, 2012, Kid Rock joined Romney at a campaign rally in Detroit and performed the song. "He loves Michigan and Detroit and so do I," Romney said.[5] The rally occurred on the eve of the Michigan Republican primary, which saw Romney defeat Rick Santorum.

Kid Rock also performed the song at Red Rocks, Colorado during the Romney campaign for a Rally. He also performed it at the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, New Hampshire at an "Election Eve Rally" with Romney which was the largest political event in New Hampshire history.
