Would it be easier if they were all called Bob?

I realised something reading this Washington Post story on the California election - most of the leading candidates have rather long surnames. Out of the leading seven candidates, only Simon and Camejo have short names, then there's Ueberroth (9 characters), Huffington, Bustamante and McClintock (10 characters) and, of course, Schwarzenegger with a whopping 14 characters. It's often been said that candidates with shorter names have a better chance of being elected (though like many bits of political specualtion it's hard to prove) but this election does seem to be an opportunity for the 'big names' to stand up and be counted. Though, according to this list of California's Governors, the state has had a few Governors with rather long names, mostly back when the Spanish were in charge but there was the 10-character Deukmejian in the 80s.

But, just to throw this open, if we take the two leading candidates (Bustamante and Schwarzenegger, according to the polls) they have a total of 24 characters in their surnames. Anyone know of an election between two candidates with longer names?
