2012 Ryan, Romney Sing Songs of Selves
Posted by Paul Constant on Tue, Aug 21, 2012 at 6:08 AM
1. Here's the Song of Mitt's Self:
2. Here's Paul Ryan's bro-tastic "Song of Myself."
3. Since we're being vaguely bookish about our politics this morning, Slog tipper Matt asks: "Did you know that the phrase 'Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan' is an anagram of 'My ultimate Ayn Rand Porn?' Crazy." I did know that, Matt, but I don't believe it's been on Slog yet, so thanks!

Yes, "My Ultimate Ayn Rand Porn" already was on SLOG.

That Romney ad's really good, slick and folky in the oil-corporation-as-local-business style.
The Ryan Song of Myself is even better! I wonder if, after twenty years of invading Middle Eastern countries (or however long it takes), we'll be seeing new versions of Drum Taps.

Aye, @1, I uncorked it on Slog on the 16th, Melissa Dunphy (@mormolyke) tweeted it on the 17th (with attribution), and it produces google 45,000 hits (fewer than 100 with attribution) at this writing.
How did Ms. Dunphy stumble onto it? She's a composer whose Gonzales Cantata won raves from Rachel Maddow, and she's currently working on an opera about the sex life of Ayn Rand as a PhD Dissertation at Penn.
