How lame can you get? Though I know there will be a contingent that will buy it.
So Nicosia has told the story thus: He goes from seeing doors ajar on Thursday and doesn't really think much of it. Then Friday as he's "coincidentally" moving the boxes to a "secure location", THEN he notices "boxes missing", plus he tells another reporter (maybe all, who knows with their styles if they report all they hear) that some of the remaining 11 boxes also were rifled through.
He goes on to think maybe a thrill seeker wanting a piece of history like the Berlin Wall (for pete's sake) may have been the culprit, and Nicosia doesn't seem the least alarmed that someone's been skulking around his house while he was out. Oh, and he says oh, darn, these are lost forever.
Then it comes: And this could hurt *Republicans*. Yeah, right. Your mistake was not have your mythological Republicans steal all 14 boxes as they just happened to know which boxes to take? I don't think so and I don't think a rational person will think so either.
