Last time he was running for President, the time before this time, Mitt Romney gave an interview to the Wall Street Journal that ran under the title, “Consultant in Chief.” Romney had of course been a consultant at Bain & Co. before becoming head of Bain Capital, before becoming head of Massachusetts (as in governor of the Commonwealth). Asked how he would cut costs, Romney first despaired of the way Washington was organized, then floated a possible solution: “I would probably have super-cabinet secretaries, or at least some structure that McKinsey would guide me to put in place. I’m not kidding, I probably would bring in McKinsey…I would consult with the best and brightest minds, whether it’s McKinsey, Bain, BCG or Jack Welch.”
