Dotan> Can Python go through a directory of files and replace each
    Dotan> instance of "newline-space" with nothing? 

Sure.  Something like (*completely* untested, so caveat emptor):

    import glob
    import os

    for f in glob.glob('*.vcf'):
        # corrupt data
        uncooked = open(f, 'rb').read()
        # fix it
        cooked = uncooked.replace('\n ', '')
        # backup original file for safety
        os.rename(f, '%s.orig' % f)
        # and save it
        open(f, 'wb').write(cooked)
