From Wonkette:
It's perfect
Oh, c'monn.
I mean puh-leaze.
So he had a drink of water. So ? (bottled water – what's wrong with the tap in that place? bottled water wastes energy and is realy only for rich people? Can the rest of us buy bottled water with food stamps?)
I don't really care about the stage or the water. I care about the message and what I heard loud and clear was Mr Rubio wants to cut Social Security and Medicare. I think he should explain specifically how he wants to do that. Is it the Ryan Plan? Or something else?
And yet he lauds medicare for how it allowed his grandfather (or some elder relative) to get health care and die with dignity. Also lauds government loans that allowed him to get an education.
Besides a conviction that we can't control the weather offered as some sort of response to climate change issues, it's hard to figure out what his message was supposed to be. His Big US Government Saved My Cuban Immigrant Family and Gave Me Opportunities message delivered in the same breath with his Big Government Bad message didn't exactly form a cohesive whole.
The only reason the water thing was so arresting somehow is that it so fits in with his looking (and sounding) like a big overgrown Middle School kid. All he needed was a shot of a soccer mom off to the side handing him an energhy bar out of her purse.
Lay off poor Rubio, of course he was nervous. Going up against Obama is like debating God!
(Nice retrospective of GOP responses. I can't look at an image of Paul Ryan now without imagining Biden erasing his widow's peak.)
The dude was funny. Why did he not put his bottle of water in the podium? Going back further, why not hydrate? Here is a "secret", many of you will be doing things in front of groups, even working as surigates for candidates, drink some apple juice about 15 minutes before talking. It clears out the gummy stuff and you will have a clear voice, without a need to "clear" your throat.
Look, if YOU had to report to the C Street dungeon for a good thrashing twice a week, including Tuesday nights, you'd have cottonmouth too.
Ok, ok, work on the damn responses. Sheesh! Did you have to bust out the Jindal Walk?
This is the stupidest politcal story in a long time.
