Name game an insult to educated voters

Republicans are saying the only reason Liz Mathis won the District 18 Senate race is because people recognized her name? If that's the case, then can we expect a few Republican candidates to change their names for the next election? A couple of names that might work for them would be Ronald Reagan and Dwight Eisenhower.
What an insult to voters to suggest they voted only for a name.
