I doubt that many conservative Christians have managed to slog their way through Atlas Shrugged, much less the 'overwhelming majority.' At most a few Republicans talk about their admiration for Rand. The only people who claim that she's had major influence on Republicans are Liberals. I think that's just because she is such an easy target. Also it's important to note that Rand was no fan of the Republican party either. The only Republican she ever endorsed was Barry Goldwater and that was only very briefly, she quickly withdrew it and in her typical fashion started to insult him.
