Everyone knows that Donaldson has been forced out for being too pro-investor, and that Cox is expected to make things more Pitt-like. And since he wrote a review of an Ayn Rand book for the New York Times, Will is trying just a little too hard on that score.

Make more sense? It made perfect sense to me. Was there an error in his logic somewhere? Did you look at the title? You missed the point of the essay completely. The point was that most of the attacks on Cox are ridiculous. In addition, there is no evidence that Cox is an Ayn Rand devotee so calling him one is absurd.
