You know, I am hesitant to propose an answer not due to lack of ideas, but to an overwhelming amount of ideas. If you turn the argument the right way, most bad guys could be called a genius for one thing or another. It's probably easier to list those who have absolutely no stroke of genius or inspired plotting or astounding success in an endeavor.

But, to get this going, how about Sauron? Has to be a genius to convince so many people across 3 Ages to trust him, even though it's been proven over and over again that he is an evil trickster.
