I think what Kerry was trying to do was to speak about someone that most people, especially those watching and attending the debate, could "relate" to sort of instead of continuing to talk about gay Americans as some nameless, faceless entity that you discuss in terms of political and moral ideology. It was the perfect way of saying to America "Here we have the daughter of one of the most important political leaders of the nation, whose party has taken a firm stand against her lifestyle (natural or not), who is a lesbian. How can we not consider this issue and these people in a more personable way?"
