I am sure all these attorneys representing Obama are doing it for FREE, yeah right

If they're a bunch of highly partisan Democrats, then they're absolutely handling this as a pro-bono matter (to be paid off in political favors, Chrysler dealerships, etc., at some point in the future). There may be no hard evidence of legal fees due, but there's most assuredly a debt accumulating. These lawfirms may be absorbing the cost - for now - but Obama probably hopes to eventually pay them out of our pockets, not his.

If his numbers look bad as the 2012 election approaches, all sorts of interesting things could come of this.

That doesn't negate the value of their work. It would still be worth over a million dollars. Probably more since they are all likely shysters.

Obama has only had legal representation in 3 of the 60 or so cases.

Isn't that paying off personal debts and political favors with tax payers money ?
