Unaired RNC Ad From 2012 Rips Obama For Benghazi: 3AM Call Was Ignored

The Republican National Committee produced the above ad during last election, but never aired. The ad was based on Hillary Clinton's famous "3 AM Phone Call" ad from the 2008 Democratic primary election. The RNC added video of the burning U.S. consulate in Benghazi as background footage while the phone is ringing. The phone call, supposedly from someone at the Benghazi consulate, is never picked up. According to reports, the ad was scrapped and never aired because Romney wanted to focus on the economy and not appear to be politicizing the terror attack.
