There are compelling arguments for his reasons, particularly a respect for the beliefs of others. Many people (myself included) are not Christian, and do not wish to see a state where abortion is outlawed and gay marriage declared illegal.
Just because you're of a faith does not mean you subscribe to their every belief. Many jews are not kosher, for example. And many Catholics believe that gay marriage is acceptable. I do not believe that Kerry is "cashing in the vote" in those instances; he is following his own personal moral code.
