Maybe if a few more politicians get stung by these DMCA takedowns,  
they won't just blindly accept what Viacom's lawyers tell them and  
call all the rest of use thieves and pirates. They MIGHT een get off  
their asses and fix the DMCA.

(although, in the cases mentioned here, only the Fox News one might  
possibly be considered fair use. Using copywritten music without  
permission, even for political commercials, is a no-no. ESPECIALLY if  
the copyright holder doesn't like your politics. They had some gall  
using Jackson Browne's music without permission and thinking they  
would get away with it.)
