The story goes that not only did he leave the incriminating hard drive at the repair shop last year, but the dummy failed to pick it up.

Belonging to the kid of a high profile politician, the repair guy had a butchers, found this stuff, decided it should be made public, and that's how it found its way to Guiliani. The part I don't understand is how it got to him when it was originally given to the FBI.

But yes, as Cujo says, all of this could be a Russian plot.
