For that matter, the Repugs succeeded in changing the name of the National Airport to Reagan National Airport in DC - and that was done while Mr. Reagan, while brain dead, was still alive. How is that different from naming a city after Stalin while he was still alive?

PS. I'd rather live in a city named after a statesman with terrible human rights records than after a B-movie actor serving as a "great communicator" to the corporate government.
