Paul Ryan: Rock Star

Don't miss Glenn Beck's interview with Paul Ryan. Beck fell in love, and so did I.  I love me some wonky politicians. In fact, I heard Ryan mention means testing of SS benefits and had a flashback to Bruce Babbitt's 1988 presidential campaign.  The line on him was that he was too analytical and "means testing of social security benefits" wasn't a good campaign slogan. Babbitt was no closet conservative.  He also supported a national sales tax, if I recall, but there was a time, back in the day, when fiscal responsibility had a constituency on the left. 

Also check out Ryan's super wonkalicious website, A Roadmap for America's Future.
