But even as Black provides a private voice and a public face for McCain, he also leads his lobbying firm, which offers corporate interests and foreign governments the promise of access to the most powerful lawmakers. Some of those companies have interests before the Senate and, in particular, the Commerce Committee, of which McCain is a member.

Black said he does a lot of his work by telephone from McCain's Straight Talk Express bus.

Did you see this part? Seems one of the lobbyists works on the bus itself.

Good old John McCain-campaign finance is for the little people. And of course it’s ckay if he talks to lobbyists all the while complaining about special interest money in Washington. He’s special. It seem the straight talk express has a forked tongue.
