At least I sure think so. I heard Costa on an audio-only podcast version of _Meet the Press_, and could have sworn I was hearing Cramer. Take a listen, and see if you can hear what I mean. They look very different, so if you don’t close your eyes, it may be harder to hear the similarity:

Cramer is from Philly; I can't seem to find out where Costa is from.
