If Cain fires him, I think Ed Rollins might be available.
lol
Yeah, the candidate shouldn’t make wild accusations about his opponents. He needs to hire a professional sock puppet to do it. That’s what WJC would do.
I don’t think Block is cut out for “in front” of the cameras thing. He strikes me as more behind the scenes type.
Big deal. Smear Politico however you can. Lie about them. They deserve it. Say they have ties to the Devil, and Obama, and whoever else— it’s probably true anyway.
They don’t deal in facts so all’s fair.
I don’t think Cain needs to necessarily eliminate him, but maybe reassign him to something more appropriate.
Showing undue loyalty is costly in politics.
An amateur delegating to an amateur.
Michelle Malkin is an honest broker. We, and Herman Cain, need to take her advice seriously.
There was a pause...it was cleak Block was thinking and I thought, "just tell him your're still researching it." But he didn;t he told him it was confirmed.
Now this.
Block should continue to help the campaign but Cain needs a new face that is more considered and much less apt to fire from the hip when he is not sure. This is not the first time.
Anyhow, at Cain's support site, I just read an entry from a black man in Charolette, SC. Here's what he had to say:
I am standing with you all the way, please don't give up and do not droop your shoulders and drop you head. Stand proud, tall, and defiant. The media always think they can break us blacks but not so. I do not know what it feels like to go through (and you're going through it, it won't stop you) what you have experienced but I am a black, Christian conservative who has caught plenty of flack and even been threatened. I know the rigors of being black and standing against the Democrat Party and so does my church. In 2008 my pastor preached from the Bible and told us to vote the Bible. One fourth of our church left and did not return because we did not want Obama to win the election because he stood against Christians and was for things Christians can never stand for. We have a rather large church so 1/4 was a large number but at least those of us (thousands) still there are on your side. We are conservative but we have been drawn to you. So hold on, we're all going through this with you. I like what Bush had to say after 9/11. I always think about it, "We will not falter, we will not fail." Same for us, we will not falter and we will not fail, DON'T GIVE UP!
People are rallying to Cain...the smear campaign is so obviously just that. He has answered it directly. The ball is in their court but unless there is something drastric, absolutely unrefutable with evidence (which I do not believe) he can move on now and simply point all of their hullabalou back to the news conference and let his lawyer handle the legal side of it.
He was Cain’s choice and surely Cain is aware of what Block is saying and doing. If he’s not, he should be. If he is, then he’s on board with it.
I think he’s on board with it. Anything to deflect the charges onto someone else.
If Michelle Bachmann doesn't make any significant gain with tonight's debate, and I doubt she will at this point, I would like to see her finally drop out and endorse, AND campaign with Herman Cain along with Sarah Palin. I think Cain's our only Conservative chance, but I will support any of the actual Conservatives if they get the nomination. I hope the Conservative candidates attack Romney and Obama instead of each other. Attacking each other only hurts us Conservatives, and help Romney and Obama. There are also ways to disagree with each other without attacks that just build resentment and anger between Conservative candidates, and their supporters.
I don't see the problem. Some say it is bogus, some say it is not. What we know is that the Politico journalist has been accused of being related to the woman.
Cain needs to prove he can attract top-tier lieutenants. Amateur hour is over.
So now Michelle has said this is it FINALLY acceptable to point out Cain has seriously mishandled the situation?
“It’s his top aide and chief of staff Mark Block.”
He acts too much like a comedian to run a campaign to help select the President of the United States of America!
Mark Block is a meat-head. Dude needs to go.
