Donald Trump had another big night Tuesday, winning Florida (knocking out “Little Marco” Rubio), Illinois and North Carolina. He remains the undisputed Republican frontrunner, with 661 delegates in the bag, more than half needed (1,237) to win the nomination at the Cleveland convention this summer. Just one problem: the Republican establishment, which has been steamrolled and humiliated by Trump’s swift rise, fears he could be crushed in a Clinton landslide come November, dragging the Senate down with it. What to do?

Here’s the thing. Delegates won now are only required to back a candidate on the first ballot. If Trump doesn’t rack up 1,237 before the convention starts, we’re probably looking at a“brokered” or “contested” convention—meaning that a nominee could emerge after two, three, maybe even more, rounds of voting. Now that’s entertainment. And that’s why top Republicans are praying for Trump to falter.

If he does, who’s next? Ted Cruz, the Texas senator who also hates the establishment, is in the strongest position. He has run a strong campaign, winning not just his home state, but six others, with one from last night, Missouri, still undecided. But he’s despised too. That leaves the only establishment guy still standing: Ohio Gov. John Kasich.

Kasich hasn’t gotten much face time in the debates, but made the most of what he had to outline his considerable experience, which includes 18 years in the House, including a six-year stint as where he served as chairman of the Budget Committee. He’s quick to point out that he was a key player when Congress passed, and President Clinton signed, both welfare reform and the Balanced Budget Act of 1997—resulting in (this is not a typo) budget surpluses in 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001. One part of Kasich’s budget hawk past that might hurt him now: he proposed means-testing Medicare payments to seniors who made more than $75,000 a year. At the time he called for a Balanced Budget Amendment, saying ”If the politicians know they must not only achieve a balanced budget but also must maintain a balanced budget, they will have no choice but to develop credible solutions and do so sooner rather than later.” Too bad it never happened.

Unless pressed, Kasich skips over the next part of his bio, which includes being an executive for seven years at Lehman Brothers, where he managed its Columbus, Ohio office (it was a two-man office). Being in Ohio, far from CEO Richard Fuld and Lehman’s New York headquarters, gave him cover during the firm’s spectacular collapse in 2008:

“I wasn’t involved in the inner workings of Lehman, I was a banker,” Kasich said in 2010. “I didn’t go to board meetings or go and talk investment strategy with the top people. I was nowhere near that. That’s like, it’s sort of like being a car dealer in Janesville and being blamed for the collapse of GM.”

Following Lehman’s collapse, Kasich—whose net worth is today between $9 million and $22 million—ran for Ohio governor, beating incumbent Democrat Ted Strickland. The Great Recession hammered rust-belt Ohio, and Kasich takes credit for its subsequent recovery, though he somehow neglects to mention that the state’s jobless rate had fallen nearly two full points—to 9.2% from 11.0%—before he was even sworn in.

During his five years as governor, Ohio’s unemployment rate has tracked the national trend, falling to 4.9%—though that’s up from 4.6% in August. Kasich brags about how more than 400,000 jobs have been added on his watch, though he’s rounding up from the true figure of 383,500. That sounds nice, though in relative terms, the rate of job creation—7.6% since he took office, is slower than the 9.5% pace nationwide.

What’s really interesting about Ohio’s new jobs is something that Trump, with all his “we’re losing to China” talk, seems clueless about: that jobs from China are now coming to the U.S.—including Ohio. One example (Kasich not surprisingly loves to talk about this): Fuyao Glass, which makes automobile windows for General Motors and Chrysler, invested some $500 million in an Ohio plant, creating about 1,000 jobs. A company executive says it may hire at least 600 more.

“China’s coming here,” Kasich likes to brag. “We’re not going there.” Trump has also ignored something that another automaker—Ford—happily gives him credit for: helping to move manufacturing jobs from Mexico to the Buckeye state.

These are solid wins, but Kasich’s problem is that it’s an anti-establishment year. His support of the two biggest trade deals of our time—the North American Free Trade Act of the early 90s, which he helped pass—and the Trans-Pacific Partnership now, have run into the Trump-Bernie Sanders buzzsaw, and it’s resonating with voters who feel they’ve been left behind. Many have, their struggles are real, and they don’t buy what establishment types like Kasich (and Barack Obama for that matter) say.

Kasich has made another big boast too: that as governor he took Ohio from “an $8 billion hole … to a $2 billion surplus.” This is true, notes Politifact, though subsequent data puts the hole at about $6 billion. Still, that’s impressive, though the way it was done leaves him open to criticism: there have been cuts to municipalities across the state, leading in some cases, to layoffs of teachers and firefighters, for example. Kasich’s answer: counties and towns need to be more efficient, trim waste and learn to do more with less. Not an unreasonable stance.

A President Kasich would cut the top individual income-tax rate to 28% (it’s 39.6% now) while providing relief for lower-income Americans through the Earned Income Tax Credit. He has said little about reforming surging entitlement spending—about three-fifths of the federal budget—but has acknowledged that a higher retirement age may be necessary. These things and more, he claims, would enable the federal government to balance its books in eight years. Eight years? The man has yet to show that he can win a primary—other than in his own state—and he already sees himself being re-elected to the White House.
