I am convinced the drink of water was product placement.

Rubio even tweeted a photo of the Poland Spring bottle right after the speech. Did you see how he held it, so that you could read/recognize the label? Think about it, they usually use a glass of water for that sort of thing.

I'm not sure what that was all about, but I worked many, many years in film and TV, and I know product placement when I see it.

brought to you by Poland Springs?

Either that or he needed to do something quick to shift focus from part 2.
