Check out this image from YouTube that shows a video of “Sen. Larry Craig” by the user, GovMittRomney.
Try watching it, oh wait, you can’t. This is the message that you get when trying to click from that screen:

It still shows up in a search of Romney’s videos, but the video does not load.
In a February 8, 2007 press release, Senator Craig was named one of Romney’s Co-Senate liaisons.
Boston, MA - Today, Governor Mitt Romney announced that U.S. Senators Robert Bennett (R-UT) and Larry Craig (R-ID) will serve as Co-Senate Liaisons for the Romney for President Exploratory Committee. As Liaisons, they will lead Governor Romney’s outreach efforts to their fellow Senators.
So my question is, did Mitt Romney scrub Senator Larry Craig off his YouTube?
Updated 8/27/07 at 5:05pm: An e-mailer writes that, according to the Romney camp, CNN just reported Senator Craig resigned his post with the Romney campaign.
Updated 8/27/07 at 5:10pm: CNN’s Political Ticker:
The Romney campaign has also pulled a video of Craig from its YouTube channel, according to the online Web site The Politico.
The video, a clip of Craig praising Romney for his “strong family values,” was changed to a “private” video shortly after the news surfaced of the arrest, The Politico reports.
That was quick.
Updated 8/27/07 at 7:38pm: MyDD’s Todd Beeton says, “looky what we have here.” (Live Leak rescued the video Romney doesn’t want you to see.)
Updated 8/27/07 at 8:30pm by David D.: Craig has now resigned from the Romney campaign, making the scrubbing of the site… OK?

Oh course the campaign pulled the video! Why would Romney continue to accept the endorsement of a man who lacks integrety?
Romney did the right thing. This scandal shows how important it really is to have a man with values at the head of the country. Mitt Romney is that man.
“Multiple Choice Mitt Romney” has all the values of a defective weathervane. He is very sensitive to hot air coming from the right.
Weathervane? More like a windsock.
He’s either puffed up with the prevailing breezes, or limp.
And we still haven’t heard about his seven great-grandmothers…
Can the country stand much more from the party of family values?

Something to say?
He said “liason,” “scrub,” “exploratory” and “load.”
Huh huh huh huh…
