There's no business like show business, there's no business I know. Except maybe for township politics.
No elected official needs his name on any sign paid for by anything other than his/her personal finances. I've seen Viessman's name as well as Moore's on public vehicles. Why? When those folks are out of office the signs are obviously worthless.
I think Illinois finally wised up (oxy-moron) and stopped putting the governors names on the welcome to Illinois signs. The way we go though governors this has to be a savings.
