21:02Now PlayingDemocracyNow.org - As Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin formally accepts the Republican vice presidential nomination, we look at the record of the Tea Party favorite with two reporters from his home state: Ruth Conniff of the Progressive Magazine and John Nichols of The Nation. Ryan is expected to fire up the Republican Party's conservative base after pushing a controversial budget and economic vision marked by deep cutbacks to the social safety net coupled with lower tax rates. Falling on the far-right spectrum of his own Republican Party, Ryan opposes abortion in all situations, including cases of rape and incest.
