Rand mentioned Spooner himself in his filibuster. And it's silly to say that Rand has "nothing in common" with Rothbard. Just because Paul is more pragmatic than many other libertarians, and perhaps more moderate in his principles as well, doesn't mean he isn't profoundly influenced by Rothbard.

Rand doesn't have anything in common with Rothbard.
And Rothbard's whole criticism comes from being pragmatic (Working with the New Left in the 60s and the Paleocons in the 90s, supporting H.W. Bush for president, et cetra).
