You mean a career ender for CNN, right?

Troy Senik, Ed.

This does illustrate one of my favorite principles of modern media: there is nothing too stupid to be considered news if you put a question mark in the headline.

Will  Newt Gingrich distance himself from this?

He was one of CNN's 'talking heads' last night.

Or is he considering a primary run, again?

Good grief.  Seen this all day.

Being thirsty while making a major speech is an unforgiveable flaw, but Bob Menendez and the Central American hookers is barely newsworthy.

I quit.   I'm just gonna let them win and see how I do after the country falls apart.

I think Rubio should start his own line of water. That'll shut them up, and they'll get a lesson on how free markets work.

How can you lose something you never had?

They really are afraid of Rubio, aren't they?

Let me see,  a CNN hack who says on air that global warming might have something to do with a meteor sailing by the Earth won't have a "career-ender" moment, but Marco Rubio grabbing a sip of water during a speech will?  Du-uh! Of course.

Yes, but unless we act now, they will destroy him just like they've destroyed every other conservative up-and-comer.

They're playing the long game.

I'm with Denise.  Embrace the water.  

Make it symbol.  For example:  Conservatives help you water the economy so that you can make it grow--liberals pour sulfuric acid all over it. [Needs work, but you get the idea].

Is CNN really stupid enough to believe that a politician taking a drink because his mouth is dry will end his career?

A picture with a Poland Spring mini-water bottle is sure to be a new Twitter meme.

I wonder if global warming is making Rubio drink mini bottles of Poland Spring water?

Meanwhile CNN wonders if this photo makes dear leader eligible for a third term.

I'm sure the MSNBC brainroom is working in shifts on a way to claim drinking water is a racist dog whistle.

They're trying to cast this as Rubio's "Ted Muskie" moment, I bet.

So is this the great flaw in Senator Rubio's character they're going to throw at us in 2016?  Maybe we can beat Hillary after all.
