Well, I would get the thing out, and open up the case, being careful to be gentle with the CRT tube.
Allow everything to dry out, and then put it back together. It's entirely possible that it will be OK once it's dry. (Another possiblility is that some debis may have been deposited that sets up a low-resistance path where one shouldn't be.)
I would let it dry carefully, put it back together and test it out...standing in a position where I could quickly cut the power at a powerstrip if it fails the "smoke test".
Be careful when handling the opened case; there may be capacitors that are still holding a high-voltage charge (although that is unlikely). The results of encountering one of these high-voltage zaps will likely be no more serious than a minor skin burn, but they can startle you into dropping the tube, whereupon you can be injured by flying glass if the tube implodes.
