Not really a misspelling, as I'm sure you know. Really just a different approximation of the Cyrillic original with Latin letters, like Mao Tse-tung and Mao Zedong. I've read that he preferred the -off ending to the -ov, not surprising given his (understandable) attitude towards any changes that could be associated with the Russia of Lenin and Stalin.

At this point, though, I doubt the spelling carries any political connotations, so I'm not sure why it's such a negative for you. Perhaps because it has modernist connotations? ;)
