In the grand tradition of Republican relatives breaking with their family members on social topics, Barbara Bush, the daughter of George W.

The timing of Barbara's ad makes sense—she didn't want it to be all awkward at the holidays! Now, she might not even have to see Dad until maybe Memorial Day.
