I haven't follwed the state rules on campaign money in a number of years but I wonder if he loses if he can personally take any balance in the campaign account for personal use.
If he can, could it be possible that he expects to lose and lose big and is ammasing a fortune to retire on?
Possibly, but would anyone knowingly contribute to a retirement account?
(Well, the toon is getting a library.. So I guess it's possible.)
