Chris has a few of my former Mantles in his collection and he is a very very wealthy man... the insider trading accusations regardless of being guilty or not is not how he created his wealth... the opposite in fact as that trading accusation has cost him quite dearly, both monetarily and reputation.

One thing about politicians is, since their job exists due to votes from the public, they are well versed in being friendly to and interacting with the general public. It's not as if a politician running for office is going to turn down an autograph request from a potential voter.

True. However, they usually won't spend an hour for one vote.

Guess we know where all that (alleged) insider trading money went.

Let he who hasn't cheated on his income taxes cast the first stone !

As a collector he always answered my emails when I had questions about Mantle cards and was there to offer info and advice on my collection. No, I don't live in his district...As a fellow collector he is an A+ in my book.

Well said, Phil; the paraphrase of the Lord Jesus Christ's words are most apropos here. --- Brian Powell
