Still no decision yet from Robert Ritchie, also known as Kid Rock.
The Michigan native announced late Wednesday he is still contemplating a run for U.S. Senate.

The announcement comes after the rock star teased earlier this month he was considering a go at politics.
Rock released a statement on his website, saying:
During this time while exploring my candidacy for US Senate, I am creating a 501(c)(4) - a non-profit organization for the promotion of voter registration. Not only can I raise money for this critical cause, but I can help get people registered to vote at my shows. Since the announcement, the media has speculated this was a ploy to sell shirts or promote something. I can tell you, I have no problem selling Kid Rock shirts and yes, I absolutely will use this media circus to sell/promote whatever I damn well please (many other politicians are doing the same thing, they just feed you a bunch of bull**** about it). But either way, money raised at this time through the sale of merchandise associated with this very possible campaign will go towards our 'register to vote' efforts.
Along with announcing a non-profit, Rock said he will hold a news conference in 6 weeks to "address the issue amongst others."
