One of the things that stuck out at me over Mitt Romney's fundraiser was just how reminiscent the unguarded Mitt sounds to his Ayn Rand-devoted vice presidential choice. How angry and full of persecution his words were. How it stopped this side of advocating "going Galt". There was so little understanding of the realities of life for most people...all he could muster was a righteous indignation of how these people who couldn't support him were clearly losers. This glory of selfishness that Ayn Rand championed is getting more and more prominent, and it's become a malignancy in our political process. Our buddy Rich Eskow noticed it to, and wrote this for CAF:
