This will be quite interesting to see how it plays out.

Schwarzenegger Opponents' Campaign Acknowledges Downloading
Tue Sep 12 2006 09:48:43 ET

Democrat Phil Angelides' gubernatorial campaign acknowledged Monday that
it downloaded the digital audio file containing Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger's controversial private remarks on ethnicity, but said it
did nothing inappropriate and accessed the recording through the
governor's "publicly available" Web site, it was reported Tuesday. 

But Schwarzenegger's legal affairs secretary, Andrea Lynn Hoch, said
earlier that the access was "unauthorized" and that an internal audit
discovered the six-minute audio file was hacked from the private
computer system of the Governor's Office on Aug. 29 and 30. 

Angelides campaign manager Cathy Calfo confirmed to the SACRAMENTO BEE
that her staff used one computer to access the audio clip on those days.
But she said her staff did not hack into the Governor's Office server
and that the file was widely available on Schwarzenegger's Web site.
