My guess is the USSC will rule that Leo DoNofrio’s suit, while it has legal merit, is now moot. They will also publicly declare that responsibility for qualifying Obama rests with Congress, when they count the electoral votes in January. If one member of the House and one member of the Senate object to Obama’s votes being counted, there will have to be an up or down vote in January 2009 on the question of his being a qualified natural-born citizen. Will Nancy and Harry save Barack? Stay tuned! Once it comes to a public vote, they may just possibly prefer Joe Biden.

Per the 12th Amendment, the House CANNOT vote for Biden - only those others who received EC votes for POTUS ...

The EC voters would have to INITIALLY vote for Biden to keep it out of the House ... which (theoretically) they COULD do.

However, once in the House - they are bound by the 12th Amendment ...

See Post #196 ...
