Does "partners" here mean "homosexual partners/couples"?
Context:
* “David Axelrod is here. Now, David and I have been together for a long time. I can still remember. I sort of tear up a little bit when I think back to that day that I called Axe so many years ago and said, ‘You and I can do wonderful things together.’ And he said to me the same thing that partners all across America are saying to one another right now: ‘Let’s go to Iowa and make it official.’”
