Contracting Riches for Nation's Capital -
http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W7RT04529237884658B4F3FAE81420 The metropolitan

http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W7RT04529207A84658B4F3FAE81420 Jack Valenti took a
break from cleaning out
his office the other day to expound on a subject he knows well:
the art of persuasion. Over minestrone soup and hummus at his
usual table at the restaurant in the Hay Adams Hotel, Valenti,
the 82-year-old dean of Washington lobbyists, reflected on how
Washington has changed and how lobbyists should operate here.
