If a platform that includes "Encouraging Abortion" won't get you elected, then what will? And just in case his gubernatorial campaign doesn't work out, he has a backup plan.

And according to the AJC, he's not even the most colorful democratic candidate: "Most of the best lines of the night came from McCarley, a 78-year-old one-time Alabama lawmaker who had to hold his hand cupped to his right ear to hear the questions asked of him."

Obviously, neither is a front runner. However, unfortunately for many Georgians, if you want a candidate who supports gay marriage (or even civil unions) you're stuck choosing between one of these two. I guess that's Georgia politics for you...
