Senator Marco Rubio Makes Big Headlines After Nancy Reagan 'Catch'

By Michael Lopez

Say what you will about Marco Rubio, he's definitely got quick reflexes. The Cuban-American Senator got major kudos in the media this week for catching Nancy Reagan after she accidentally fell.

Nancy and Marco were walking side-by-side at California's Ronald Reagan Library when the tumble took place. Apparently the 90-year-old former First Lady lost her footing and Rubio quickly grabbed her before she hit the ground.

"She's just fine," a spokesman for the Library said. "Our aisles were crowded and she tripped on a stanchion, but recovered quickly, and we started the program on time."

The "program" happened to be a special event in Marco's honor. The 40-year-old Florida rep gave a speech to the crowd and answered one particularly burning question. When asked if he would consider running for Vice-President on the 2012 Republican ticket, he firmly said no.
