Talk:Albert Rosellini

Moved comment from 209.91.49.157

What the hell is this: "Alleged reports have been filed with Law Enforcement that have Rosellini either linked or involved in Organized Crime at a high-ranking level as Boss or Top Advisor to the Colacurcio Crime Family based in Seattle." Since when are the terms "law enforcement" "organized crime" "top advisor" "top advisor", etc. capitalized? C'mon people - let's respect the integrity of Wikipedia and refrain from putting crap like this in it! Whoever wrote that is not only factually challenged, but also has a major literacy problem. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dmanning (talk • contribs) 07:32, 15 February 2007 (UTC).

Is this a hagiography or biography?

This article has been heavily sanitized and reads like a hagiography rather than a biography. It also takes a very informal tone. The article itself should not refer to its subject by an affectionate nickname (i.e., "The Gov"), though it may certainly provide a cite and note that others use this term of endearment. What's more, while it lists Gov. Rosellini's accomplishments and quotes a number of very nostalgic, glowing character pieces, it mentions none of the controversy or allegations that surrounded his leaving office - all of which are a part of his legacy. It glaringly omits his long, public, and often criticized ties with Frank Colacurcio Sr that date back to the 1940's. One may certainly say allegations of misconduct were never substantiated, but to pretend they were never made, or that the police did not question "The Gov" pertaining to his acquaintance with Colacurcio, let alone the "Strippergate" affair, is bad faith. There is a difference between a fair, critical biographical article and a white washed piece of candidate propaganda. He was an effective governor. He was also one with some controversy attached to him. As a public figure he has to live with that being a part of his public legacy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.139.181.179 (talk) 00:04, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

1956 opponent?

Who was his GOP opponent in the 1956 election? Did he win overwhelmingly, solidly, or (as in 1960) barely? I'm surprised these matters are not mentioned. --Haruo (talk) 03:24, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

I leave it to someone else to decide, but I think File:Gov. Albert D. Rosellini, ca. 1957 - DPLA - a46b08ab81da3ed47704a67d3b7fd9cf (page 1) (cropped).jpg may be a better photo of him than the one currently in the Infobox. - Jmabel | Talk 02:00, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Related to Hugh J. Rosellini?

This article says no, Hugh's says distantly. Which is right? 31.94.66.64 (talk) 14:27, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
