After largely striking out on efforts to paint Rep. Paul Ryan as some sort of extremist, the left – in the form of the Huffington Post – has turned their sights on his wife, Janna Ryan.

WASHINGTON — Janna Ryan was introduced to America on Saturday as a stay-at-home mom who has raised three children while her husband, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), built a career in Washington.

But the wife of Mitt Romney’s vice presidential pick spent a decade in Washington herself, first as a congressional aide and then as a corporate lobbyist, whose clients included the cigar industry, a logging company, drugmakers, the health insurance industry and a nuclear power plant.

The details of Janna Ryan’s lobbying career come as Democrats and Republican party insiders question whether Paul Ryan’s career in government, and his scant private sector experience, are at odds with Mitt Romney’s pro-business, anti-Washington message.
