Rubio, R-Fla., has turned his water mishap into a financial boon — raising $160,000 by selling over 5,000 Rubio water bottles through his Reclaim America PAC in just one week, a source close to Rubio said.
Last week, Rubio reached for a bottle of water as he delivered the Republican response to President Obama’s State of the Union address.
