P. Begala: B- (score 2.5)
L. Sanchez: A- (score 3.5)
D. Gergen: A (score 4)
R. Martin: D (score 1)
C. Borger: B (score 3)
Average score: 14/5 = 2.8 which is a C+/B-

Visitors grading the speech: 19,126 gave him an average of "D"

(edited to remove an "A" suggesting a grade, which it was not meant to do)

1. lol...I love Roland Martin.
Gee, Gergen. You graded higher than LESLIE SANCHEZ?? Oh well, at least he really liked Obama's speech too.

2. I gave him a C
because it made me throw up in my mouth a little less than Palin's big fat F of a speech... but at the same time focused too much on the POW story rather than his actual qualifications. He was less insulting to democrats than I thought he would be after seeing Palin's speech, but he came off a bit wooden and tired. So I don't think the speech went over well with the general public.

I am very very honest in my opinions on such things, so I could not give him an F just because I plan to vote against him in Nov. He did a C. Obama, by comparison did an A+

3. Gergen has been very critical of Repubs lately, so I'm surprised at his rating.
He's usually one of the few Republicans that doesn't talk out of his ass.
