Christie and Graham did pretty well. I voted O'Malley for getting so high a %age in FL AFTER he dropped out.

Voted Rubio because he won MN, DC, and Puerto Rico. Also, he stayed in the longest and for a while looked like he had a shot. Could have said Christie too, because he helped bring about Rand Paul's downfall, destroyed Rubio's chances in the debate, and even after dropping out stabbed everybody else in the back to possibly get himself a spot in an administration if Trump were to win.

Given his situation, Chris Christie ran a decent campaign, it just never resonated.

No doubt it was Rubio up until the New Hampshire debate screw up, and when he crashed electorally in March.

I agree with ElectionsGuy in picking Christie and Rubio. Both ran fairly solid campaigns.

+2 on Christie and Rubio.

The worst by far was Carson - so much potential, so little political ability.

In terms of accomplishing the objectives of his campaign (book tour): Carson
In terms of doing what he needed to do to win: Rubio. Take out the debate gaffe and find a way to take Florida, and Rubio probably has a 1-on-1 with Trump right now.

I confidently predicted that Cruz would outlast Rubio after South Carolina. Reason being, Rubio's support was concentrated in the liberal regions of the state.

Rubio simply had nowhere to go. If Cruz had dropped, Trump would be the nominee. Rubio was polling to the left of Trump.

Rick Perry? well i mean, this campaign was leagues better than his first one because he knew to get out before it became even worse.

O'Malley's wasn't too terrible for someone with no support and no money.

I liked the way Carson ran with integrity style and dignity.

Of course, none of the qualities found in the current nominees.
