involved in the Edwards blogger flap weighs in.
I don't know about McEwan's previous posts, whether they were as offensive as Amanda Marcotte's, but I think in both instances, both of them wanted to continue their personal blogs while being officially involved in a candidate's campaign. That can't be done without hurting the candidate in question.
In the end, they didn't have any choice but to leave. While I certainly don't condone the harassment both of them received, it is cowardly to blame others for their own problems.
After all, it was their posts, especially Marcotte's, that got them into trouble.
