Political Word of the Day: Farley file - A Farley file is a log kept by politicians on people they have met previously. It’s named for James Aloysius Farley, who was Franklin Roosevelt’s campaign manager and later became chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Farley kept a file on anyone Roosevelt met allowing him to “remember” key personal details such as the name of their spouse and children or anything useful which might have come out of earlier meetings. Farley files are now commonly kept by politicians.
