That assumes:
... the $ is real.
... there is a positive balance in the SuperPac
... Stewart will transfer ownership back to the candidate
... Colbert is the candidate
... Cain does not have a good lawyer
But it's too good a story line to let it die now.
In the real world, candidates can "suspend" their campaigns,
raise more $, and personally keep whatever is left over, or donate to others.
ETA: IRW too, the SuperPacs are not required to name contributors or amounts.
The TV talking heads are saying/hoping Colbert is really just exposing the realities of SuperPacs
