Dim Bulb: CNN anchor Don Lemon

Published August 3, 2011 4:00am ET



WHAT: Asked Rep. Raul Grijalva, D-Ariz., “would the president be better off running as a conservative in 2012?” WHY IT’S DIM: Lemon might as well have asked Grijalva if Obama would be better off running as a Whig, a Bull Mooser, or a United States Pirate Party candidate.

CURE: At least have some idea of the meaning of terms like “conservative” before you use them in questions on the air.
