Dim Bulb: Former House Speaker and current GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich

What: When asked why his campaign for president stumbled earlier this year, he said: “Because I am much like Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. I’m such an unconventional political figure that you really need to design a unique campaign that fits the way I operate and what I’m trying to do.’ Why it’s dim: We would lower ourselves to explain, but we are too much of an unconventional newspaper.

Cure: Humility.
