| − | I removed the comment that Rockefeller was the leader of libersl Republicans. This article is about the national Republican party. Rockefeller never was elected to any federal office, never served in the US Congress where such a title might be conferred. Rockefeller had a contingent of followers as he served in FDR's administration, but most all held appointed positions. As a leader of "liberal Republicans", a few New York congressman may have identified as such at a time when New York was the most populous state, as a few others in neighboring states. But referring to him as "the leader of liberal Republicans" doesn',t hold up outside the New York GOP or New York politics.
