Talk:Roy M. Goodman

Addition of unsourced material
I have more than once removed material that is referenced to sources that in fact contain almost none of the information claimed. Specifically, the following claims have been added and then re-added, but neither cited source actually contains them:


 * "Goodman is notorious among New York Republicans"
 * "Mario Cuomo... was considered unbeatable"
 * "Goodman checked his Rolodex and found Rinfret..." -- the story says the Roldex belonged to "a friend of State Senator Roy M. Goodman"
 * "Rinfret... whom he knew socially"
 * "Goodman picked Rinfret because he was pro-choice on abortion"
 * "Goodman picked Rinfret because... as a millionaire economist, could spend some of his own money on the campaign"
 * "Rinfret's campaign quickly became a disaster and a national laughing-stock"

A section entitled As New York County Republican Chairman cited no sources whatsoever.

I have yet again removed all material not backed up by a reliable source. Please do not re-add this material again without citing a reliable source for each of these claims, as well as those set out in As New York County Republican Chairman. --Rrburke(talk) 17:22, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
