Kerry joins Ohio suit against Triad

Baby steps out the door. Baby steps into the recount. Clearly Christine Gregoire and Viktor Yushchenko have provided some shred of inspiration for Senator John Kerry. Breaking news from Truthout:

Specifically, Kerry will be filing a request for expedited discovery regarding Triad Systems voting machines, as well as a motion for a preservation order to protect any and all discovery and preserve any evidence on this matter.

In case you missed it -- and it's not difficult to miss news from Ohio's recount since the media is ignoring it entirely -- a Triad Systems employee was caught in Hocking County, Ohio allegedly tampering with a vote counting machine which could taint the recount totals there.
