Why would a gay man want to work for the National Republican Senatorial Committee?

Even bigger question: Why would a gay man want to work at the most senior levels of an organization run by anti-gay Senator George Allen (R-VA), who just came out in support of the anti-gay Federal Marriage Amendment, and an organization that on its Web site repeatedly attempts to "smear" Democratic Senate candidates by linking them to gays and gay rights groups, as if gay people were some kind of sick pariahs?

Why indeed...
