GOP to file fundraising complaint against Obama

Oct 5 03:26 PM US/Eastern

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Republican National Committee plans to file a fundraising complaint against Democrat Barack Obama's presidential campaign Monday, alleging it has accepted donations that exceed federal limits as well as illegal contributions from foreigners.
RNC officials acknowledged Sunday that they do not have a list of foreign donors to Obama's campaign. Instead, the complaint is based largely on media reports, including one from a conservative Web site.

The complaint asks the Federal Elections Commission to audit Obama's campaign fund, RNC chief counsel Sean Cairncross said in a conference call with reporters.

1. Meanwhile McPain directly violated the rules during the primary
and there is considerable evidence that he is using RNC money directly for his fall campaign.

Luckily for all concerned the FEC doesn't have a quorum and can't do shit. Ain't that just too damn bad?

3. Pretty ballsy, considering McCain
would be doing a five year sentence right now for campaign finance violations if the Republicans were doing their jobs.
