Rubio destroyed himself, it was embarrassing. He recovered later, but the big moments are what get remembered. Definitely a bad moment for him. He's still the nomination favorite at 5dimes which speaks to the weakness of this field. In other years, I think he'd be out of the race for that performance.
Trump was just there, so that's a strong performance for him. Nobody went after him aside from Jeb, and that was a very short exchange. Cruz was completely placid here, don't know if he wants to avoid confrontation after winning Iowa but it was a non-performance for him. I would say that Jeb and Kasich came out of this one the best but it should be too little, too late for them. Although I don't think he looked the best, Trump wins just because it was fairly uneventful besides the Rubio plunge.
It's funny, Christie buried Rubio but it probably did absolutely nothing for him. He didn't make himself look good and I doubt he gained any voters.
I still don't think Trump's going to win once the field thins, but I have no idea who's going to be on the other side.
