MSNBC: The Benghazi attack ad Romney nixed and the one Rove aired
The Republican National Committee cut an attack ad weeks before the 2012 election, blaming then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for the deadly Benghazi attacks, but the Romney campaign pulled the plug.
The ad, unearthed and aired for the first time by ABC News, splices together Clinton’s famous “3 a.m. phone call” ad from her presidential campaign in 2008 with images of the burning U.S. consulate in Benghazi.
