Not at all: the OED has this,
"Imago: 2. Psychoanalysis. A subjective image of someone (esp. a parent) which a person has subconsciously formed and which continues to influence his attitudes and behaviour."
"Imago" seems to work better, and it's hard to see anything malignly political in the emendation.
