Questions for debate:
Will this action make national news and negatively affect Senator Obama's chances for the presidency?

Zack, if you think this worthless bit of intenet crap is important enough to bring up for debate, then don't half-step and expect others to provide the background information for you.

Survival Guide:
Cite your sources, and be prepared to back-up your argument. Don't make us ask for your sources after making a bold statement. Providing sources early and often solidifies your argument, and solid arguments help establish credibility.
Barring the inclusion of the supporting information, there's no good reason for this thread to exist.
The suggestion to go look for the information ourselves does not stimulate genuine debate.

According to this link http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2066207/posts a jury trial has been requested. And according to this link
Considering a jury trial has been requested on the multiple count complaint I would think it would be within the Democratic rules that someone at the convention could question Senator Obama's nomination verses the pending litigation?
I would think, if nothing else the existence of this case could cause Obama supporters to make outbursts at the convention further dividing the party support for the nominee?
QUOTE
A prominent Philadelphia attorney and Hillary Clinton supporter filed suit this afternoon in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic National Committee and the Federal Election Commission. The action seeks an injunction preventing the senator from continuing his candidacy and a court order enjoining the DNC from nominating him next week, all on grounds that Sen. Obama is constitutionally ineligible to run for and hold the office of President of the United States.
