Romney Camp: CNN Made Us Do It!

The hard-hitting video on Rick Perry that Mitt Romney’s campaign deep-sixed last night (watch) was taken down because of complaints from CNN about the use of its clips, the Romney camp now says. But they tell us they stand by the video and accompanying press release, which suggested Perry didn’t have the brain power to be President. Interestingly, Perry has a new ad of his own up that makes use of CNN clips.

Late Update: CNN confirms to us that it did complain to the Romney camp about the use of its on-air talent in the video.
