Shakes leaves Edwards campaign

Well I'm glad it's over. In the face of unrelenting and frightening hate mail Shakes resigned. She notes that this is not a win for the rabid horde of hatemongers, though they'll claim victory, but a loss for everyone who values civil discourse.

She's right about that, but the knuckle dragging cretins who so bravely send anonymous threats have been ruining internet discussions for as long as I've been on on-line. It's a victory of sorts to deprive them of a target. They'll be forced to go back to eating each other's young until they find new prey.
