The Associated Press today publishes an investigative look at Cain campaign chief Mark Block, the cigarette-smoking star of Cain’s latest campaign video.
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.

Block, who was interviewed for the story, reminds reporters that both he and Cain don’t “fit the mold.”
“Can you imagine Karl Rove doing what I did with that cigarette?” he said with a laugh.
