Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is reading "The Making of the President" (Theodore White). Just for historical purposes, he says.

LaVarr Webb is expanding his political horizons and will be reading "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder" (Michael Savage) in hopes of understanding the rantings of Pignanelli.

D'Arcy Dixon Pignanelli refuses to read the immensely popular "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands" (Laura Schlessinger). However, her husband is reading selected passages to her while she sleeps. He reports no immediate effect.


Republican LaVarr Webb was policy deputy to Gov. Mike Leavitt and Deseret News managing editor. He now is a political consultant and lobbyist. E-mail: lwebb@exoro.com. Democrat Frank Pignanelli is a Salt Lake attorney, lobbyist and political adviser. A former candidate for Salt Lake mayor, Pignanelli served 10 years in the Utah House of Representatives, six years as House minority leader. Pignanelli's spouse, D'Arcy Dixon Pignanelli, is executive director of the state Department of Administrative Services in the Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. administration. E-mail: frankp@xmission.com.
