Apparently five years in captivity in Vietnam and two runs for Presidency of the United States does not exempt you from copyright law, or getting a DMCA notice from a big record label.
"Obama Love," a montage of press fawning over Sen. Barack Obama that was posted on Sen. John McCain's official YouTube channel has been removed "due to a copyright claim by Warner Music Group."
The video, set to Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off You," was viewed more than 200,000 times in three days, and was key to helping McCain beat Obama in total views on YouTube over the past week. "Obama Love" had been the top promoted video on McCain's YouTube channel, but more significantly, it was fodder for news coverage and bloggers and reposted across the Web.
Here's a look at how "Obama Love" helped McCain over the past few days.
And what did the McCain team put in its place? An attack ad of the sort that has been working well for them on YouTube:
