U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Miami, and his supporters have wasted little time trying to get ahead of the pundits and late-night comedians expected to focus on his dry lips and need for a drink of water during the State of the Union rebuttal.
Rubio hit the morning TV chat-show circuit on Wednesday where, in addition to discussing his actual message, he offered some self-deprecating humor on "Good Morning America" by noting, "I mean, I needed water, what am I going to do?"
"God has a funny way of reminding us that we're human."
He would later tweet that he had Picked up over 13,000 new followers on #twitter since last night! Im going to start drinking #water in the middle of all of my speeches.
Rubios PAC, Reclaim America, is also offering an official Marco Rubio water bottle in return for a $25 donation.
Send the liberal detractors a message that not only does Marco Rubio inspire you he hydrates you, too.
