Here's what Jim Cramer had to say about some of the stocks that callers offered up during the "Mad Money Lightning Round" Monday evening:

Marvell: "This is a very tough call because this stock has been, literally, cut in half. ... I have been afraid to pull the trigger. ... This group is in such a bear market. ... I am afraid of hurting you."

Fluor: "I am shocked and amazed that Fluor is down so badly after the close. ... I think the conference call is going to tell all.. ... The infrastructure story is alive and well. I'm staying bullish."

Cincinnati Bell: "I want you to swap out of the Cincy Bell and go into the Qwest, which is the letter Q and the king of speculation."

Microsoft: "I think that the 22 ½ [price] is actually rock solid."

Comtech Group: "These guys are in a genuine Kodiak [bear] market."

MCG: Cramer suggested American Capital Strategies instead because it has a better yield.

Lucent: "This is a serial destroyer. This is a Jack the Ripper. ... It is still destroying your capital even as I talk."

"Kimberly-Clark is making its move. I see 61 going to 65. ... I like that stock."

Accenture: "Kind of a slow snail, but finally gets there."

Aqua America: "I think it's making a comeback. ... I give this stock 1 ½ thumbs up. Why not two? Because I still never got a straight story as to why they did so badly the previous quarter."

Ford: "They reported a much bigger loss [than expected], and the stock did not go down. ... I am taking it to a Don'tBuy, and I am whipping myself [for having it as a triple sell]."

Sirius: "I'm perplexed, if not flummoxed. You know what I really am is nonplussed." Cramer says the stock should be at $4.20, and at $9 if it merges with XM.

Midway Games: "He [Sumner Redstone] bought 90 million shares, and it didn't move. What does that tell you?"

Akamai Technologies: "I need you to take some off the table. Akamai's up way too much."
