I don't know a thing about Ryan, saw him for the first time yesterday, but I was impressed. Either he or someone on his staff did their homework, he was very clear in his presentation and I think articulated well the issues around HC. Y'all from Wisconsin may have a different perspective, but I was admittedly suprised the GOP had a guy like that on the team.
