It may be bullshit, but its also politics.

It was not politics to begin with. It was personal blogging from before she was on Edwards campaign team. It was a seedy smear campaign against Edwards, which Donahue had no qualms about admitting during the fiasco. It would hurt Edwards if he kept up with it, and he made that quite clear.
I'm sure as far as "anti-Catholic" vitriol goes, he could have undoubtedly found thousands of more serious offenders....but he could hurt a Democratic candidate at the same time, and that's an I'm-an-******* bonus for guys like Donahuhe.
