Rappper Eminem Says He May Have Cost John Kerry the 2004 Election
Female First UK ^ | 1/12/04

Posted on 01/12/2005 10:19:16 AM PST by gopwinsin04

Eminem believes he could have cost US Presidential candidate John Kerry the 2004 election.

The outrageous rapper released his anti-Bush single 'Mosh' just before America voted in November 2004 in a bid to whip up resentment against the president.

However, the outspoken star believes he could have won Kerry enough vital votes to swing the election in his favor if he released the controversial track sooner.

He said: 'I do have a bit of regret about that. We did ot best to get it out as soon as we could. But do I wish I could have gotten it out two weeks earlier? Yes.'

The hip hop star also admits he regrets releasing 'Just Lose It' as the first single off his critically acclaimed fourth album 'Encore' for the sake of promoting the record.

These entertainers think too much of themselves. Either way, nice to hear Enimen admit the truth. You'll never hear it from George Soros.

It's very encouraging to see that "they" are still clueless. Here's to a Republican victory in 2006 and 2008!

Marshall, a PRIME example of a LACK OF BRAINS that cannot be made up for by a fat bank account.

BTW, thanks to ENEMA M for helping us CRUSH HANOI JOHN.

What's with this rush of idiots claiming responsibility for Kerry losing...except for Kerry, who claims he didn't lose, Bush just won? I guess libbies just love hugging each other and saying "Ohhhhhhhh that's okay, but thank you for admiting it, that's brave of you." Dopes.

If so, then THANK you Mr. Mathers! Thank you Michael Moore! Leave it to the "useful idiots" to bring our base (and many others) out to the polls.

Oh great, now I have that riff from one of his songs ("Without me"?) running through my head. Na NA na na na... na na na NA na...na na na NA na...na NA na naahhh...

I think the ego's of celebrities is the most amusing thing about the election.

As if he's so important that he can sway an election? Please. Spare me, Marshall. Just sing (or continue making whatever that bleating noise is) quietly in the corner, and go away.

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

Read it again. He's not admitting anything. In fact, quite the opposite.

Sounds like the record company forced Marshall Mathers to release the pop friendly 'Just Lose It' with the crazy Jakco video rather than his politically oriented screeds that no one wants to hear..

Here I thought this guy was the anti-celebrity celebrity. Guess I was wrong. Most of America doesn't care what any celebrity thinks, and if they do care, most don't listen to them.

Eminem thinks he could've won the election for Kerry? Gee, how many people in the Red States said to themselves:

Hmm. Bush or Kerry, Bush or Kerry. I'm leaning to Bush but it's so hard to decide. If only there was a misogynistic, scrawny-ass doughboy to tell me who to vote for.

Umm, MNM, your ego is out of control!

Has anybody seen the "post election" version of Mosh?

Instead of it ending with people going to vote, it ends with what appears to be a call for anarchy, even shows Cheney having a heart attack.

He took the DUmmie way out and blames everything on the government! He was poor because there was not enough welfare. He was abused because the government let it happen. Etc...

Yeah, he's probably right. If he had released it when Bruce Springstein and all those other idiots started their anti-Bush concert tour then his contribution would have been just what kerry needed to push him over the top. What a self-absorbed little pissant this punk is!
