I'd like a source for that. Not that I disbelieve you, but it never came up in AP History and now my curiousity is piqued.

There was an FR thread about it when it happened. Must be in the archives someplace.

Of course, in the rough and tumble of special-interest politics, some groups will inevitably lose out. All reference to one of FDR’s most memorable talismans, the smoldering cigarette holder, was quietly omitted from Estern’s statue, indeed from all images of the president that adorn his memorial. No Cigarette Smoking Man in evidence here. Halprin’s is an FDR perfectly suited to the politically correct Clinton ’90s.
