During the recent rewrite I removed two statements. The first statement I removed had to do with the fact that DeFazio has lost support. The second statement was that he is rumored not to be running in 2006. No creditable evidence was given for either statements.Davidpdx14:40, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
He swore on CSPAN once. He just said "dammit" when he was passionate about some bill of his, and whoever was in charge said "No swearing on the senate floor" in a robotic voice. If I could find this somewhere could I use it? Electricbassguy (talk) 22:20, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The "neutrality" tag was placed on the article in March with no further commentary on the talk page. The material in question seems to be the detailed description of DeFazio's considered runs for U.S. Senate in 2005 and 2006 made by an anon. The major part of the edit is here. The addition doesn't seem to be egregiously POV to me, but it definitely needs a citation and some cleanup. I added the citation tag; anyone object to removing the POV tag? --Esprqii (talk) 01:13, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
