Ironically, the main reason I'm voting Democrat is enlightened self-interest; I really don't have time to deal with getting insurance right now. :P

And that objectivism is a horrible atheist thing?

I think I remember reading him saying that Thomas Aquinas was the biggest influence on his world view.

Found on Political Wire, which then led to Kos, which then led to Atlantic Wire, which summarizes Ryans lengthy and "effusive" devotion to Rand, with a link to his own voice stating it to a Rand group in 2005.

He also made the statement you referenced, categorically rejecting Ayn Rand. So he is a bald-faced liar by his own words; as with Romneys contradictory sworn statements on Bain, the question is not IF he lied, but WHEN.
Was he lying when he said his views are founded on Rands, or when he rejected her completely?
