HRC and the gay National Stonewall Democrats backed Martin in the race. The national office of the Log Cabin Republicans did not endorse Chambliss, although some members of the gay GOP group's Georgia chapter supported him, according to Jamie Ensley, Georgia Log Cabin president.

"Georgia LCR members will continue to talk and lobby Sen. Chambliss about LGBT issues that the Senate will be voting on in the next two years," Ensley said. "We are hopeful that he'll give full consideration to these proposals, since most fair-minded Georgians support them."

I think the odds of Chambliss supporting TLGB causes rank right there with the odds of the existence of Santa Claus. But then again, the LCRs are known for tireless misplaced faith.
