MIAMI — Tough. Snarky. And mysteriously missing.

Less than a day after showcasing a new attack ad against his rival for the U.S. Senate, Rep. Alan Grayson’s campaign removed the School House Rock-themed spot. Grayson’s campaign wouldn’t say if the move was prompted by concerns over a copyright violation because he used the trademarked “I’m Just a Bill” song to mock fellow Democrat Rep. Patrick Murphy over his effectiveness in Congress.

“We moved on to a positive video,” Grayson spokesman Kevin Franck said, refusing to elaborate.

The spot was a headache from the start. It was misleading because it falsely said Murphy had passed no bills in Congress, even though he had passed the substance of some legislation as amendments. Soon after the ad went live, it was roundly mocked.

I hope Grayson sends him back to the republican party.

3. Murphy is supporting President Obama's deal with Iran

Grayson has criticized the agreement but has so far declined to support it.
