Mitt Romney on
whether he'd cut any cabinet agencies to balance the budget:
One of the things I found in a short campaign against Ted Kennedy was that when I said, for instance, that I wanted to eliminate the Department of Education, that was used to suggest I don’t care about education [...] So will there be some that get eliminated or combined? The answer is yes, but I’m not going to give you a list right now.
Of course, given that Mitt Romney has already come out strongly in favor of Paul Ryan's plan to end Medicare as we know it, the secret's already out.
