politics + religion + god bless x = not good mix

Could someone "translate" this for me:
Quote:
A C and D student, who hates to govern, loves to campaign, and barely has a sixth grader's understanding of economics, will lead our nation into oblivion.
I'm especially puzzled with "A C and D student". How bad thing this is? I'm totally unaware of Texas politics - didn't even know governor's name.

Those are student grades.

A= highest, best
C= average
D=lowest, but passes
F= failing
