The party that runs on 'family values' and claims that moral high ground as a political strategy doesn't get to take 'family' off the table when it gets politically uncomfortable.
This is not a direct attack on Jeb Bush's politics. This is an attack on his family members, meant to indirectly smear Jeb Bush. Gingrich has been repeatedly divorced and had affairs. That's a fair-game issue to attack his "family values" quality. If Jeb had been abusive against his children, that would be fair-game to attack his "family values" merits. Smear attempts by drudging up decade+ old one-off instances of 18+ offspring engaging in common indiscretions of college age youth is not fair game.
So you're requesting Democrats unilaterally disarm - because you know that the rightwing propaganda machine won't ever hesitate to go after Democrats' relatives of any sort for political purposes...
