Hank Williams, Jr - McCain-Palin Tradition

Never shy about stating his political opinion, Hank Williams, Jr. has come out with his own McCain-Palin stump song; "McCain-Palin Tradition," a rewrite of his classic "Family Tradition."  Political songs aren't ever too 'strong' in my book can they get any worse than this?

Hank Williams Jr. has followed John Rich’s lead and recorded his own song about John McCain’s presidential bid.  It’s a rewrite of “Family Tradition” and it’s “McCain-Palin Tradition.”  The lyrics are just like listening to a McCain-Palin stump speech.   It goes on to list the same old political crap against Obama (the terrorist associations, etc) and I have no doubts that it will play to the base of McCain and Palin, of which many are country fans. Still, after listening to Hank Jr. bastardize his own song makes me like John Rich’s Raisin’ McCain all that much more.  More importantly, it makes me realize how much I hate politicized songs like this, regardless of what side they are for.
