Here's what Jim Cramer had to say about some of the stocks that callers offered up during the "Mad Money Lightning Round" Wednesday evening: Synaptics (SYNA - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I am not a fan of touchscreens. It's too much of a commodity. Stay away from that group." Methanex (MEOH - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "This stock has been so cheap for so long I don't know what to say. I can't get behind it. This group is hard, let's just go with DuPont (DD - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) or Dow Chemical (DOW - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr)." Dolan Media (DM - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "These are specialized business publications. I liked it when it IPO'd, but I don't like anything media right now." Tesoro (TSO - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "No, no, we're not recommending any refiners right now. The margins are horrible here. They're getting squeezed. You can go with Marathon Oil (MRO - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) but that's it." Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "One year and 79 days the FCC has been holding up this merger. Enough is enough; it's an outrage. Sirius should be bought. " World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I was concerned with the quarter, but the number was fine and I say its two thumbs up. WWE rocks." Akamai Technologies (AKAM - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "That's old technology. I'd take profits there and invest in some new tech like Eaton (ETN - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and Parker Hannifin (PH - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and go where the excitement is." ONEOK Partners (OKS - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I've always liked that one. That's a good situation. I like these stocks and their yields. " Spartan Motors (SPAR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "No, no, this is an under-performer. They can't deliver in this environment. I'm sorry."
