Newest RNC Ad Attacks Kerry Debate Statements

The newest anti-Kerry ad by the RNC is available for viewing.

The Republican National Committee released today a video of statements made by Sen. John Kerry in last night's debate alongside the earlier statements they contradict.

Question: Does it violate the spirit, if not the letter, of the Memorandum of Understanding on Debates, (pdf) as agreed to by both campaigns. From Section 5e:

"Neither film footage nor video footage nor any audio excerpts from the debates may be used publicly by either candidate’s campaign through any means, including but not limited to, radio, television, internet, or videotapes, whether broadcast or distributed in any other manner."

In discussing the Democrat's release of the Faces of Frustration video, Taegan Goddard says:

I suppose the loophole here is that it's not technically Kerry's campaign releasing the ad, it's the DNC. But does the Bush campaign dare complain and bring more attention to the ad?
