Remember last year when Carly for America Super PAC had to change its name because Super PACs weren't allowed to have candidate names in their name, so they changed their name to C.A.R.L.Y for America?  

Well now even that thin veneer is gone...

It will be interesting to see how candidates and their Super PACs respond to this. On one hand some may want to use the candidate's name, but on the other hand when running negative ads, it is nice to give the candidate some distance from the ads.
