If Marco Rubio wins big in New Hampshire Tuesday, it may be despite his own lips.

The Republican candidate for president was widely criticized both on stage and by pundits for a robotic and repetitive performance in last week's GOP debate, as shown by ABC News and debate cosponsor New Hampshire TV station WMUR on YouTube.

And of course these are only the latest examples of Rubio's mouthwatering mistakes. He first made meme makers smile from ear to ear with his thirst-quenching GOP response to President Obama's State of the Union address in 2013, seen below in a meme on Storify.com and a clip courtesy of The New York Times' YouTube channel:
