The creators of a video showing young kids singing about their adoration for Sen. Barack Obama pulled it from YouTube (sometime after we posted it last evening). It had been highlighted earlier in the day by Drudge, Gawker and others.

Did the Obama camp ask that the creators pull it, or did they do it on their own? And why did many people think the situation was so damning in the first place?

UPDATE: The video is now back up, posted by YouTube user “kathysawada.” New question: Why did the user remove it, only to re-post hours later?

An Obama supporter named Kathy Sawada is a teacher at the Colburn School of Performing Arts, an elite academy in Los Angeles. Some right-wing bloggers are saying that she is somehow connected to NBC President Jeff Zucker and that he helped create the video. Which would be more than a little odd.
