Does "partners" mean "gay partners/homosexual partners"?

Context:

David Axelrod is here. You know, David and I have been together for a long time. I can still remember -- I got to sort of -- I tear up a little bit when I think back to that day that I called Ax 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. (Laughter and applause.)

@oristarA,
Yes, that's what it means. The article is from 2009, the year in which Iowa legalised gay marriage:

@Pearlylustre,
Agree, but I'm taking the whole article as a spoof.
