I just received a PM from a friend who thought that I was implying by my objection that being gay was something to be ashamed of. So let me add that my objection has nothing to do with gayness.

I consider speaking so personally about a family member of your opponents to score a political point offensive. IMO, Kerry used her gayness unnecessarily, and I believe it was political and insensitive. I thought the same when Edwards did it. Her comfort with her gayness, her parents' acceptance, has nothing to do with it; speaking about such personal things just feels wrong to me.

My friend saw it as a sensitive, inclusive comment.
Which just goes to show we all see different colors through our prisms.
