No, it is the candidates themselves.  LOOK at their OWN signs.

Hillary Clinton's signs read "HILLARY"
Barack Obama's signs read "OBAMA"

The public is simply calling them by the brand name the candidates selected!

Completely agree with your analysis Michael Z as to "why" she did it.  My issue is with those who are complaining about people not giving Hillary Clinton due respect because they refer to her as "Hillary" and not as "Clinton."

Look a the name of this thread:  Will it ever be "Clinton" rather than "Hillary"

No one should complain if we are calling a candidate by the name they print on their signs, bumper stickers, websites, etc.
