I'm here to spin the moral compass.
Here's a quote from an article I found about Karen Handel announcing her run for Saxby Chambliss's Senate Seat:

Remember “Groundhog Day,” the 1993 film in which Bill Murray has to keep
repeating the same day over and over again? Covering LGBT issues here in
Georgia — heck, being an LGBT Georgian — sometimes seems like that. I felt
this way again May 17 when Karen Handel announced her bid for the U.S. Senate
seat being left open by retiring Sen. Saxby Chambliss (D-Ga.). The race
had already drawn a crowd of GOP big wigs, including U.S. Reps. Paul Broun, Phil
Gingrey and Jack Kingston, and all are genuinely awful when it comes to gay
issues. On the most recent Human Rights Campaign Congressional scorecard
on LGBT issues, Broun scored a measly 15 out of 100, while Gingrey and Kingston
earned a flat 0. Given that crowd, LGBT Georgians could already expect to
be in the crosshairs in a race to the right for the GOP nomination. But if
the race was likely to go anti-gay before, the entrance of Handel virtually
guarantees it.
