I successfully downloaded this file; perhaps it's been missing due to
maintenance or whatever and you could try again.

This just means you don't have a local copy of the file. You'll get this
message once more when you actually succeed, and then no more.
Besides, are you actually in the US ? If not, I suggest you look for a
mirror near you: http://www.debian.org/mirror/list . I doubt that's the
problem, though.
