Heart Doesn't "Heart" McCain
These guys are just so freaking clueless. Do they have anyone that has actually ran a campaign before? Add Heart to the list of Chuck Berry, John Mellancamp and Van Hagar.
Ann and Nancy Wilson are pissed at the Republican Party and have fired off a cease and desist letter to the McCain/Palin campaign.
Specifically, the Heart women are upset that the GOP has used their classic "Barracuda" as a theme song for Sarah Palin. TMZ obtained a statement from Heart's rep, who says "The Republican campaign did not ask for permission to use the song, nor would they have been granted that permission."
The statement goes on: "We have asked the Republican campaign publicly not to use our music. We hope our wishes will be honored."

UPDATE: Twenty minutes after we posted this story, the GOP ended the evening after McCain's speech with the song, "Barracuda."

Wow, if they played that
Wow, if they played that song without permission at the RNC, then that means it was heard by MILLIONS of people world wide. That's quite an infraction! They should sue and get a per-violation remittance - one per each household that watched the convention (Neilson could provide some metrics here)...
