The "full plan" link works for me in IE (it's a frame with a scribd document of eight pagefs), but I don't see any specific cuts. The closest I see is on page 5:
Code:
Stop Runaway Federal Spending And Debt.
Reduce federal spending as a share of GDP to 20 percent – its pre-crisis average – by2016.
In so doing, reduce policy uncertainty over the need for future tax increases.
I haven't been able to find a specific list of what would actually be cut.
The scribd link is here:

If I'm missing something, please let me know.

The link worked for me! Thanks!

That's because he isn't going to cut anything. His grand plan is to grow the economy while keeping spending roughly the same, thus reducing the total cost of government relative to GDP. Basically the same bullshit all politicians say, since cutting a program means lost votes. The only reason I'd possibly vote for Romney is if I thought he was lying and he'd actually cut the hell out of spending once in office. But I don't believe this to be likely.

At first, I really didn't want to believe this, but I have looked over Paul Ryan's proposal as well as anything Romney could have possibly posted and I am afraid you are right. The stance is "Without Obamacare, the budget will balance itself!" Kind of silly really.
