That's quite a surge for Santorum (he's now at 1.5). I don't know if I've ever seen his price stay that high, at least not while there's been a significant volume of trades happening in the market.

I still don't get why Huntsman is so overvalued.

Gingrich, I believe. He certainly argued that Gingrich did not engage in lobbying.

Either he's busy paying for his Escalade or the Gingrich implosion has driven him deep into hiding. 

EDIT: Tory, if I remember correctly Wonkish said that he was undecided, but he had quite a Gingrich fetish. He claimed to have spent hundreds of hours watching Gingrich speeches and bragged that he'd managed to parlay several of Gingrich's ideas into a "lucrative" raise. And he was a vehement defender of the idea that Gingrich had a plausible shot at the nomination, arguing with me over that fact as early as late September.

I have remained undecided for practically the entire cycle. I have a big personal admiration for Newt, but that didn't necessarily mean that I'm going to cast a vote for him. When you know him real well yes you know his benefits real well, but you also know his drawbacks. All of the candidates are mixed bags.

And I'm around just increasingly more busy.

You believed wrong. And he didn't engage in lobbying.

Busy working! And you have a good memory. On speeches alone a good estimate would be between 80 and 150 hours(average speech time of about 30-45 minutes). Usually listened to them in the background of doing something else. Decent amount of repetition(but significantly less than other people).

Not a raise. When I was younger I did some marketing for a start up firm that is still around. During the interview process they asked for some ideas. I produced a list of them and got the job. One of them was partially gleaned from a speech Newt gave, I believe that was the one that clinched the deal because that was the one we moved on immediately after I got contracted. That marketing idea has since become a lot more common.

So will you be able to accept Romney as the nominee? I seem to remember you being pretty anti-Romney.

I would be curious for you to quote me ever being anti-Romney.

He has a decent share of drawbacks just like the rest of them. I see Romney as very, very slight improvement on GWB and 100 times better than John McCain. I've met a lot of Romney-like people in my industry. I understand them. Doesn't mean I agree with them, but they don't bother me that much. They were the teachers pet types when they took their econ classes in college. So they are a mixture of Neo-Keynesianism and fiscal conservatism.

If you want to understand Mitt Romney look at his key economic adviser(in 08 and now), Greg Mankiw. Some of the stuff that has come out of Mankiw's mouth is absolutely atrocious, but its still a huge improvement to the crap that comes out of people like Krugman and Stiglitz.

LOL, I think it was family related. More time demands by his family if I'm not mistaken.
