Republican National Committee Chief Counsel Sean Cairncross will announce today a complaint that the RNC is filing with the Federal Election Commission against the Obama campaign.  The complaint will address foreign national and excessive contributions accepted by the Obama campaign that demonstrate it is operating outside of federal campaign finance law.
