Thanks for the replies. Especially appreciate the input on size of raises. It makes perfect sense. A 2XBB raise isn't going to scare anyone, especially one of the blinds with a decent hand. And when the blinds are high, it just takes a good size cut out of my stack without accomlishing much.
I also agree with the assessment of my calls in those last two tournaments. After both I was just kicking myself for dumb play. The feedback confims what I was thinking (after the fact, because I clearly wasn't thinking at the time). I let my concern for staying ahead of the blinds override common sense. It doesn't make any sense at all to play weak cards just to try to stay ahead, and if you feel the need to make a move - make it. Don't fool around with puny raises and then call the all-in.
