I'm frankly surprised that he ever rose in popularity.

Of course, the Republican candidates in this election cycle resemble the Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight. Bachmann, Cain, Perry and Santorum are just embarrassments to the party. Huntsman is a decent guy but not Presidential. Ron Paul is so libertarian I'm surprised he self-identifies as a Republican (though I like a lot of what he says until he goes overboard).
Gingrich has a lot of dirt, but frankly he's been the best in all the debates. He knows what he's talking about on every subject and his positions are clear and solid. After the first debate I was surprised he didn't pick up more support. He's clearly the only one who has any chance at going after Romney, the front runner. However, I still think Romney has the best chances of defeating the Obamination, so I support Romney. However, other than Romney and Gingrich the rest are just forgettable.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

How is a reference to the Berlin Wall out of line when people are calling for a wall on the border?

Just because both contain the word "wall" doesn't mean they are the same thing.
