Chambliss was successful in holding off his liberal and democratic Jim Martin, keeping the filibuster in the balance.  Saxby Chambliss says that he is pro-life and does not support gay marriage, but supports tax increases, even though earlier in his career he received a reward from [[Grover Norquist]] for taking the opposite position.
