:The quote in question came from the ''Hattiesburg American'' on October 24, 1963, in an article on the gubernatorial general election. If you think Robert Taft, Jr., made the comment, rather than Robert, Sr., what is your source? I would recommend removing this quote if its authenticity cannot be established.[[User:BHathorn|BHathorn]] ([[User talk:BHathorn|talk]]) 17:22, October 15, 2021 (EDT)
