TRANSITION: Klein's Education Secretary Picks
NYC schools chief and much-discussed EdSec possibility Joel Klein comes clean in the new Scholastic Administrator:
Q Would you be interested in joining Obama’s cabinet?
A I have the job I want and hope to remain here as long as the city will have me.
Q So who would you choose as U.S. Education Secretary?
A Someone with Michelle Rhee’s talent and passion. Or someone outside the box—maybe a venture capitalist.


A venture capitalist?
Really, Joel?
The only reason someone like that would take the job in this economy is for the guaranteed paycheck.
