Sen. Marco Rubio joked with Good Morning America’s George Stephanopoulos about his “water moment” last night, when he paused during his speech last night to gulp some water. The event prompted a flurry of Twitter chatter before Rubio's speech was finished.

When Stephanopoulos asked about the moment, Rubio grinned and reached for a bottle of water.

“I mean I needed water, what am I going to do?” he said. “God has a funny way of reminding us we’re human.”
