First of all, he is a Tea Partier.  He's also a true believer in his vision of America, which would take us back decades.  He wants to mix church and state.  He makes statements about abolishing government agencies, "on the first day" - to include the IRS (uh, who is going to collect those taxes, who will ensure that people pay their taxes, and who will go after those that don't) and the Department of Education, which considering the state of Alabama schools, will be a disaster - Alabama legislators see education funds as another fund they can dip into).  He also says he will abolish Obamacare 'the first day' he is in office.  Well, no problem with doing away with Obamacare, but what is he going to replace it with?  And he has demonstrated that he can't get along with his former Congressional collegues and I foresee nothing but him butting heads endlessly with Paul Ryan.  He shut down the govenrment, costing millions to taxpayers, because he was unwilling to compromise  The military says that his plan to carpet bomb ISIS will not work.  And that's just off the top of my head. 

The more I see, the more I like John Kasich, but I'm afraid Mr. Kasich will not be the nominee.
