Koch adviser joins Rubio team as adviser

Although Charles and David Koch have said that they plan to spend nearly $900 million from their network of political donors to defeat Democrats in 2016, they have not yet endorsed a presidential candidate.   That may be about to change.

Politico announced today that Marc Short, the Koch's top political operative, is joining Marco Rubio's campaign as a senior adviser.  He has been president of the Koch backed Freedom Partners.   Koch support means lots of money, but it also means access to their vast data bank of voter information.

Yes, but how does that help overcome Trump's message -- which has caught fire -- of fighting back against the establishment and the candidates bought by big donors?
