Even if the FDA starts regulating tobacco. Patrick Basham makes the case, noting Philip Morris' lobbying prowess. So why are anti-tobacco crusaders like Henry Waxman and Ted Kennedy playing along? And why does this big-government bill have bipartisan support? Look beneath the smokescreen.

I think a lot of people want to get something on the books to begin the process of regulation. The tobacco companies are still wildly successful. They still have 43 million smokers, and they're not going to give them up easily. Only time will tell whether this is a mistake or the beginning of reducing the tobacco toll in this country.
