Not sure when it disappeared, but the incendiary video at Sen. Collins' out-of-state fundraising site is no longer live.
Was it pulled because of the press scrutiny? Did Sen. Collins get cold feet? Or was it merely a bandwith issue?
It's not clear.
Before the internet, this kind of vicious, misleading smear would be ancient history by election day. But in a world where information is always only seconds away, it will live on.
The upshot is that, come fall, Sen. Collins will have a tough time arguing that she's been running a positive campaign all along. And she'll get pushback if she gets on her high horse about negative attacks from Rep. Allen, should he decide to go that route.
You can still watch the original video here.
