Is Governor-elect Kasich's plan to "privatize" the Ohio Department of Development and other state agencies beginning to worry the more moderate/pragmatic Republicans who might suffer later if Kasich overdoes his "limited" government approach?

Even at this early stage, we see signs that the extremist agenda pushed by local Tea Party folks might not work in real life ... Some Republican legislators have already expressed concern that the new Governor might "throw the baby out with the bathwater" ... How many of those legislators stand to lose if their own favored contractors are squeezed out when (and if) Kasich's so-called "non-profit" corporation call the shots? ... Will Ohio lose much-needed federal funds when Mr. K. trashes the high-speed railway plan? The "be careful what you ask for" scenario is starting to kick in!
