Kid Rock On Meeting President Obama: He said, 'I'm still here.' I said, 'No hard feelings,'



Washington (CNN) – Musician Kid Rock, who was a celebrity surrogate for Mitt Romney, said President Barack Obama wasted no time in jokingly acknowledging their campaign rivalry Sunday.

"It was nice. I saw the president tonight. He said, 'I'm still here.' I said, 'No hard feelings,' " Rock said, laughing.

Earlier Sunday, Rock attended a White House reception with Obama and this year's Kennedy Center Honors award recipients.

Speaking to CNN on the red carpet after the reception and before the ceremony in Washington, Rock said it was hard to see his candidate lose the election but added "it felt great" to have his music played on the campaign trail for Romney.

Now that it's all over, Rock said the election came to a disappointing end but stressed that it was time to move on.

"You cross your fingers, you try to move forward, you hope for the best," he said. "You respect the office of the president of the United States, and the great thing is in four years, we get to choose again."


No apologies, excuses, or regrets. I don't need to demonize him.
