I think it would have a harder impact on local elections in small towns, where people are more likely to look down upon scandalous things. It also depends how open and honest someone is about what they have done or currently do. Like if someone is running for President and they swear their whole family and they themself are as pure as snow but something surfaces that shows their brother did gay midget porn flicks, it would probably ruin their chances.

If they were open about what their friends/family do or did from the beginning, it depends on how respected the person is. Some people are disliked so much, that people will hold anything against them, even if it's something their friend or family did. On the other hand, some people are so well liked, that people will accept anything and everything about them, no questions asked.

i.e. the people that adore Clinton and will overlook any wrong doing on his part but if Bush's brother's wife's cousin's sister's friend's great aunt's maid gets arrested for .00005 ounce of marijuana, Bush is then ridiculed for that.
