He is the man with the mustache who takes a rebellious drag on a cigarette in the Herman Cain Internet ad gone viral.
"We've run a campaign like nobody's ever seen," he says before taking a puff. "But then America's never seen a candidate like Herman Cain."
Meet Mark Block, Cain's unorthodox campaign manager. Perhaps no one is more responsible for the Georgia businessman's meteoric rise in the presidential polls than Block, a Republican strategist and tea party leader who's left a trail of questionable campaign work behind him.
Block has been accused of voter suppression and was banned from running Wisconsin political campaigns for three years to settle accusations he coordinated a judge's re-election campaign with a special interest group.
Records show Block has faced foreclosure on his home, a tax warrant by the Internal Revenue Service and a lawsuit for an unpaid bill. He also acknowledges he was arrested twice for drunken driving.

Here are some straws to grasp. Pitiful.
UNFORTUNATELY they are only station providing a somewhat alternative viewpoint. If Cain is nominated, they will back him. They hate Obama.
Big deal! Imagine what we could come up with if we subjected all campaign people of candidates to that kind of scrutiny. If there is a problem now, Cain will deal with it. That’s what separates him from the crowd.
If you ever deign to read his first autobiography (yes, the narcissist has written TWO autobiographies), it gives some insight into his background, and it is shady.
The little that we know about Barack Hussein Obama is very troubling. His associations, his belief system - he belongs in academia, NOT the freakin’ White House.
“your all back”
An illiterate Romney supporter. How wonderful.
What’s your name over at DU?
To me it looks like a guy made a mistake and could not work in his chosen profession for three years. During this time he had financial problems (understandable when you lose work) and his personal life went into a little bit of a tailspin. At some point he turned things around and now is leading the campaign of the hottest candidate out there. Meanwhile, disgruntled ex-employees and former opponents occasionally lob unsubstantiated accusations his way. Is that about right?
The more garbage the Perry grovelers post the more obvious it becomes that they are desperate.
Laughable at best. At worst it's a thinly-veiled attempt to help Mitt Romney by attacking the only man who stands between him and the Republican nomination.
Sure looks like your opus to me.
Newt is an intellegent man.
Checkered past, Contriversial? Where is the substance? Innuendo not facts
IBTZ!!!
“Go F yourself. “
Hmmmmm.....that’s not going to go over well....
Maybe you should talk with the proprietorship if you don't like the way FR is run.

Let's see, Herman Cain has been in the (R) presidential race for a month or so and the SRM finds this nugget. BUT, they had a couple of years to investigate 0 bummer. They never found anyone admitting they had attended school with him or saw his college records. Just keep covering for barry there SRM.
