Forget about Christopher Dorner and President Obama’s State of the Union address. Judging by the response on Twitter, the biggest story of the evening was Sen. Marco Rubio’s lunge for a bottle of water during his GOP response speech.
Wait. Did Sen Rubio think there was a cutaway shot when he took s swig of that water? That was awkward! #SOTU—

Marco Rubio's furtive/terrorized look towards the teleprompter as a stole a quick swig of water may be more memorable than what he's saying—

Strongly considering getting a tattoo of Marco Rubio taking a gulp of water on national tv—

You can actually HEAR how dry Rubio's mouth is right now!! Holy crap! He should let some of that sweat he keeps wiping fall into his mouth!—

I'm listening on radio and the play-by-play of Rubio's water grab was fantastic.—

I was starting to get bored watching the Marco Rubio speech, but then the epic bottled water showed up!—

Hysterical, Rubio ducking down and reaching off-screen for bottle of water. I thought someone was about to throw a shoe at him.—

Note to Rubio: It's better to reach calmly for a glass of water on hand, than to grab your mouth and then lunge for a drink.—

The water grab was awkward. Probably worked better in Spanish. #Rubio #SOTUresponse—

Rubio grabbed a drink of water like he was robbing the bank. Homeboy, the camera never turns off! #SOTUReponse—

Very good substance, strong delivery, awkward but human dry mouth/water swig moment. #sotu #Rubio—

Maybe there’s a silver lining?
On the upside, Rubio now a possible spokesman for dry mouth syndrome.—

Of course #Rubioing has already taken off.
I'm pretty surprised #Rubioing hasn't become a thing yet, Internet. Get to it.—
