That’s campaign cash, he has many tens of millions in SuperPACs.
It will take some time for those PACs to re-tool and start to support Kasich instead of Rubio. And that is time they don’t have at this point.
They have 7 days until 367 delegates go up for grabs. 14 days until another 107. Counting all of the small contests between, there will be 511 delegates won or lost in that time frame.
The PACs will need to be moving tonight to have a chance to cut ads, buy air time, and consolidate a message that melds with Kasich’s in that time-frame. All without contact with Kasich’s team.
Possible? Yes. But Kasich will be on his on for the next two weeks, and he is out of hard money to make an impact outside of Ohio.
