From the "You Know Nothing of My Work" Files

Seems like the sources are queuing up to disavow the use of their work in the Hassett/Hubbard/Mankiw/Taylor = Romney/Ryan Economic plan,.  Cf. link,link.   But it's not just economists; last week Paul Ryan said that one of his favorite bands was Rage Against the Machine.  Comes now Rage guitarist Tom Morrello telling him to stuff it.

Would I be right that the only involuntarily enlisted ally not to disavow the campaign so far would be Ayn Rand?

No. Ryan has been desperately declaring his distance from her, saving her the trouble. (Ryan has joined Romney's "all lies, all the time" campaign in earnest.)

But that's the irony; the one person they want to disavow him, won't.
