After shaking up the GOP presidential campaign, the Etch A Sketch is a hot seller again.

Amazon.com says sales of the classic toy were up more than 1500% after a Mitt Romney adviser said the campaign would change in the fall… just like shaking an Etch A Sketch.
Ohio Art Co., which makes the toy, saw its stock price more than double Thursday.

The company is sending a box of Etch A Sketches to each of the candidates.
